About us
As a volunteer organization we not only help people play tennis, we also help build communities. And we have been doing it for over 65 years. Our mission is to promote & develop tennis for all! WE HELP PEOPLE PLAY TENNIS We help people play tennis, and we’ve been doing it for 65 years. From Youth to College to Adult, we make tennis fun for all. We work with public and private facilities and organizations across the state to create more opportunities for you to play. That’s our mission and we’re pretty proud of it. WE BUILD COMMUNITIES When you join USTA Florida, you are helping to (re)build courts, putting racquets in kids’ hands, and getting programs up and running in your local park or facility. Since 2010 alone, we’ve given more than $1 million in grants for equipment, courts and programs. Members, like you, make all of that possible. WE ARE VOLUNTEERS That’s right, we’re a non-for-profit, volunteer-led organization that works each and every day of the year to serve our more than 40,000 individual and nearly 1,000 organization members. It takes a lot of people to grow tennis in Florida, and our volunteers come from all walks of life. They have one thing in common: a LOVE of tennis.
