USTA
Adaptive Tennis National Community Service Award
The USTA awarded the 2011 USTA Adaptive Tennis National Community Service Award to Tennis For Fun. The award is given to a program or program leader that has demonstrated continued excellence, dedication and service in tennis for an adaptive tennis community. View the video below!
Our History
Tennis for Fun was founded by Nathan Moore, a Jesuit High School student, 
in September of 2000. His goal was to create a positive and fun activity for special needs athletes in the greater Tampa area. Since its inception, the program has grown substantially, spreading to four locations and coaching over a hundred athletes. Although Nathan has been attending college at St. Louis University, the program has been continued by his mother, Judy, along with Rosanna Chiaramonte, both of whom have played an enormous role in making the program what it is today.
Donate Equipment
Consider donating your used tennis rackets, balls, or clothing. We will put your donation to good use. New tennis equiment and supplies (ie. string, grips, etc.) are welcome.
