The Challenge: Fading Courts, Lost Opportunities
Tennis is celebrated worldwide, yet in Johannesburg's inner city, its presence is fading. Years of neglect have:
-
Left courts and facilities in disrepair.
-
Restricted access to tennis programs for over 25,000 students in nearby schools.
This decline impacts:
-
Opportunities for Physical Activity: Students miss out on the health and wellness benefits of sport.
-
Personal Growth: Aspiring players are left without mentorship or development pathways.
-
Community Cohesion: A potential tool for teamwork and leadership goes underutilized.
Healthier Community
Promoting fitness, wellness,
and personal development.
Opportunities for All
Providing free tennis instruction
to scholars and young adults.
Hubs of Excellence
