Cincinnati Tennis Foundation's Mission:

To use tennis and education to create life champions.

About the Cincinnati Tennis Foundation

We strive to make tennis and education available to all players year round, removing all barriers to access. We want to offer a positive, community hub to learn, grow, and thrive through the sport of tennis. Our organization is committed to creating access to educational opportunities for under-resourced youth and supporting character building opportunities through sports based youth development programs.

With the cost to develop a player from 5 to 18 estimated at $385,000*, the scholarship program started awarding players with financial aid, and the Foundation was born. Through its many programs, the Cincinnati Tennis Foundation welcomes and develops players of all ages.​

Since 2015, we have offered opportunities to thousands of students and players across parks, schools, youth centers, and clubs across Cincinnati and its urban core. Our programming includes tennis, education, and character building instruction. We work hard to make tennis accessible for everyone, including a focus on wheelchair and adaptive programs. In addition, through our NJTL Performance Program we have helped kids receive over $5 million in athletic and academic scholarships at top universities.

The donations will support:

Funding adaptive athletes from beginners to Paralympic athletes looking to play the lifelong sports of tennis and pickleball.
