Tennis is important to Atlanta, more so than many other large cities, so it’s worth noting that World Tennis Day is March 10.

This day serves as a kickoff to the Play Events. More than 1,000 facilities will host USTA Tennis Play Events in March, demonstrating how fun and easy it is for families to get into the sport of tennis. These events also will also give parents the chance to sign up their children for spring and summer tennis programs.

World Tennis Day is a celebration of tennis around the world and will be held in conjunction with the BNP Paribas Showdown at New York’s Madison Square Garden featuring 17–time Grand Slam singles champion Roger Federer taking on rising star Grigor Dimitrov of Bulgaria in one match, and tennis legends Monica Seles and Gabrielle Sabatini squaring off in the other match.

“World Tennis Day is a wonderful platform to inspire healthy and active lifestyles for families throughout the country,” said Kurt Kamperman, USTA Chief Executive, Community Tennis. “The thousands of USTA Tennis Play Events in celebration of World Tennis Day are part of USTA’s continued commitment to provide opportunities to bring more kids and their families into the game.”

The USTA has made it easier and more fun for kids to get into the game—and stay in the game. With tennis now sized right for age and skill level, kids play on shorter courts, with smaller racquets, and slower, lower-bouncing balls. Kids are able to play tennis made just for them, so they have a great time and want to keep playing and improving.
