Resources available to enrich tennis in your community
What do you want to do for tennis in your community or at your facility? Perhaps the courts at your favorite park are in need of sprucing up or resurfacing, or your school is in need of an after-school tennis program?
Whatever your dream or desire, the USTA Pacific Northwest can help you find a way to support tennis initiatives at the local level. We draw from sectional and national funds, as well as guide you toward "outside money" available through foundations, government entities and sponsorship opportunities.
