Tennis camps and warm sunny days are perfect partners when it comes to kids and their free time.  After all, this sport is a great way for young athletes to be active, learn tennis and life skills, as well as make friends and stay fit.  The SCTA Foundation is launching its Tennis Camp Fun in the Sun program to raise $100,000 sending 250 juniors ages 8 to 18 to tennis camps in 2022. Proceeds will benefit under-served and low income youth of all tennis skill levels residing in Southern California.

The SCTA Foundation’s kickoff event is a Drawing to Win a VIP Suite Experience at the BNP Paribas. Opportunity tickets to the drawing are available at the San Diego Open at Barnes Tennis Center from September 25 to October 3 at the SCTA Foundation’s booth. We invite you to stop by and say hello.
