Kids tennis
Free before or after-school tennis programs for disadvantaged kids.
Kids Tennis is a grant available to primary schools nationwide to deliver tennis programs before or after school at no charge to students. Schools that engage with the ATF receive a program tailored to suit their specific needs, with funding provided to help deliver this.
The program aims to teach kids valuable resilience skills, promote self-esteem and build a sense of belonging. This ultimately results in fostering and sustaining a healthy state of mind. A family celebration event is included in the program to help create deeper connections between families and schools.
The ATF works with the schools and clubs to ensure accredited Tennis Australia coaches are on hand to run the program, along with appropriate equipment. The ATF also provides supporting documentation and certificates to celebrate kids involved.
More than 7500 kids have been provided the opportunity to experience tennis.
