HELPING FEMALES FIND THEIR PATHWAY TO SUCCESS
We believe that through tennis, females can gain valuable life experience in a safe environment. They acquire knowledge in goal setting, discipline, independence, time management, responsibility, and so much more. We have created a collaborative environment that brings young females together to learn, grow, and lead. We believe there are various pathways to success and this program will work with each individual to reach their full potential.

Develop a team environment that allows the girls to build friendships, work together, and to grow in a non-competitive environment.
PROVIDE YOUNG WOMEN WITH OPPORTUNITIES TO ALLOW THEM TO THRIVE IN LEADERSHIP POSITIONS
Work collaboratively with the mentors and provide a strong network to assist them in achieving their personal goals.
INCREASE THE NUMBER OF FEMALE COACHES IN TENNIS
