Racquets for All Challenge
Racquets for All was established in 2008 as part of the Colorado Youth Tennis Foundation which has a mission to make tennis available to all kids regardless of economic, social, or ethic backgrounds. The Racquets for All Challenge is a great way for high school tennis players in Colorado to give back to the tennis community. Teams are encouraged to collect new and gently used tennis raquets throughout the regular season and then bring them to their Regional Tournament. Racquets will be collected at Regionals as well as State. The team that collects the most racquets will be awarded a prize at the State Championships to be used in any way the team deems most appropriate.
