What families say
“As a product of the public parks system, I learned firsthand how the support of a local community can truly influence and enhance a young tennis player's career and life. Without the support of some wonderful tennis patrons in Long Beach I would have missed out on some life-changing opportunities. Programs like Grassroots Junior Tennis do make a difference and provide a lifetime of memories.” — Billie Jean King
