USTA Northern partners with Hippy Feet for JTT Sectional Tournament

August 31, 2022


You can say a lot with what you wear. You can represent your personality. You can symbolize your values. You can signify your intentions. This year, USTA Northern Junior Team Tennis players are setting the courts “on fire” with their player gifts.

 

In partnership with Hippy Feet, the USTA Northern Junior Department gifted high quality performance socks in 5 unique colors to our Junior players. Hippy Feet, a social benefit corporation, uses the proceeds from their socks to support organizations serving young people experiencing homelessness.

“We’re incredibly proud to be partnering with USTA Northern to further the impact Hippy Feet has on young people affected by homelessness. As someone who grew up playing sports, I’m well aware of how athletics promotes a sense of community. For young people especially, a sense of community is essential to their development as it fosters leadership, encourages friendship, and amplifies support systems. It's an honor to contribute to the community USTA has built through their Junior Tennis leagues.” - Michael Mader, CEO/Founder of Hippy Feet.

The socks, which feature the USTA Northern logo on the back and “Let’s Tennis” across the toe, are a fun way for young people to represent themselves on court with their favorite color (pink, orange, purple, blue, and green) and bring attention to a great cause while doing so. 

 

“These socks are great, really comfortable. Love the colors!” - Hyde Moua, Junior Player

 

USTA Northern is committed to leveraging our resources in creative ways to benefit our communities. We encourage our community to join us in “shopping our values” when making decisions about where to invest our dollars.
