Tennis In Africa (TIA)
Providing tennis resources to our youth in Africa
TIA is a non-profit working to make tennis accessible to a majority of youth who have little or no chance of ever experiencing the wonderful sport of tennis due to either lack of opportunity, poverty, or other adversities which render the game of tennis a remote sport to them.
Champions
We coach everything our youth need to know about tennis -- understanding the game, developing the skills, sportsmanship and ultimately the joy of the sport.
Community
We believe in building strong relationships and partnerships within our African communities to help us to grow and enrich the lives of our youth through tennis.
Education
We are committed to the development and advancement of under-served youth by providing educational tennis programs. that promote personal responsibility, character development, and athleticism.
TIA in Action
We visit African communities and provide the necessary resources and coaching to support local community tennis events. These pictures showcase our involvement in Ghana. We are providing tennis lessons that improve agility and hand/ball coordination. We had a ton of fun!
Support

We need goods! Our youth need tennis clothing and equipment (new/used). We also need funds to support various events that we host for our youth like tournaments. Please help by donating to TIA.
