Palmer Park Tennis Academy
​Fundraiser 2020

Creating Future Tennis Champions

Join us as we raise money for People for Palmer Park’s Tennis Academy to assure every player has an opportunity to participate, have the proper equipment and play in tournaments NOW THROUGH DECEMBER 5, 2020.

Your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate $5 or $500.  This fund will be used to provide scholarships for registration, provide updated equipment to all players, and potentially assist families of aspiring young tennis players with the cost of playing in U.S. Tennis Association (USTA) sanctioned tournaments.  Registration fees alone for tournaments are expensive and can range from $70 to $120 per child plus travel/lodging costs may be needed for tournaments outside of southeast Michigan. Tournament play is critical to the development of our juniors who seek to improve their skills and to achieve a ranking, which leads to college recruitment and scholarships. This is one of the main goals for our students who are serious about their tennis game.

Making tennis accessible to all has always been at the heart of our program. Please join us as we seek to raise $10,000 so that we can continue to provide scholarships and equipment to our young players. 
Now through December 5, 2020.


There are two ways to give:
