Serve & Return Chicago provides kids in the greater Chicago area, regardless of income, race, gender or ability, an opportunity to learn the game of tennis while gaining values, building friendships and developing a desire for an active lifestyle. Our primary focus is to make a difference with children in Chicagoland by reaching out to those who may not otherwise have access to the game of tennis.
Serve & Return Chicago encourages participation at all levels of tennis by awarding grants and scholarships, and places an emphasis upon programs which offer local, entry-level tennis to youth players.
