At Tennis Nashville, we appreciate all you do to help promote and grow the game of tennis in our area. Tennis Nashville is a USTA Community Tennis Association, serving 20 counties in Middle Tennessee.
We know that you are on the front lines, and we support you, and would like to work with you. By working together, supporting one another, it’s possible we can become a united force, to navigate through this period of uncertainty.
USTA Southern recognizes that many in the tennis industry are being significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. The Board of Directors has set aside up to $2 million for the Southern Cares Initiative to provide immediate relief to our partners across the Southern states. This step will help us weather these difficult times, remain viable and be ready to go back to work when tennis play is able to resume.
USTA Southern has a program specifically designed to aid our tennis teaching pros.

The USTA recognizes that the coronavirus has been affecting different parts of the country in different ways and with different timing. We therefore believe it will be possible for people to return to playing tennis safely in some cities and states sooner than in others.
