Kildaire Farms NTRP Championships (NC 150/STA 75)

We want to extend a big "Thank you!" to all of you who played in our tournament and supported the Parkinson's charity. We also appreciate you being so patient when we had to deal with the rain delays on Saturday.

It's spring time and that means time to play some competitive tennis. But the Kildaire Farms NTRP Championships aren’t just about getting ranking points. It's about fun and charity too. Since April is PARKINSON'S AWARENESS MONTH, we will contribute a significant portion of the proceeds from this tournament to local Parkinson's care and programs through the Moving Day NC Triangle Awareness Walk for Parkinson’s. Food, soft drinks, and beer will be provided along with the tennis! Lunch will be provided Saturday as well as bananas, bagels, and snacks throughout the day. So, please register now and come join us for a fun tennis weekend and support this worthy cause. For information about Parkinson’s visit www.movingdaynctriangle.org or www.parkinson.org
