Don’t be this guy with broken strings at State this weekend.
Emma, TJ, Seth and Jackson are stringing today and can have your racquets back to you by tomorrow so people will say you played like Rafa, not that you broke strings like Rafa.

Today is the deadline to sign up for our Powerball Mini-tournament this weekend! This is a no pressure, family fun event that not only supports WATA Scholarships but could put some money in your pocket! 💵

Every year WATA awards college scholarships to students who have shown success on and off the court. This year we had three amazing juniors that we are happy to support in their next endeavors. Danielle Symonds received our Lou Barry Memorial player scholarship and we had two WATA volunteer scholarships this year for Emily Barr and Vince La Torre. We are proud of these young athletes and can’t wait to see what they accomplish!

We can only provide programs like this with our member support and involvement, so thank YOU! See you this weekend! 🎾
