Thanks to local providers, tennis participation across the United States has recorded five consecutive years of growth, reaching a record 25.7 million players in 2024. With rising interest and demand for our sport, it is essential to sustain local tennis initiatives to promote healthier individuals and communities nationwide.
The USTA recently pledged $5 million over 5 years in local USTA Micro-Grants for 2025 to foster the growth of tennis via local programs.
