USTA dedicates additional $10 million toward courts and facilities to ensure tennis infrastructure supports surging demand
February 19, 2025
The USTA announced its most significant financial pledge for tennis courts and facilities nationwide, committing an additional $10 million in grants to help build, refurbish and extend playable hours on courts across the United States. In a separate announcement today, the USTA shared the most recent third party research that showed a new high of 25.7 million players played tennis in America in 2024 following five consecutive years of growth. The grants will ensure there are ample spaces to support continued player demand, especially in underserved communities. A commitment to courts and facilities is one of three strategic focus areas of the USTA’s ambitious plan to grow broad-based tennis participation to 35 million players by 2035.
“We are committed to supporting the enhancement and construction of tennis facilities in communities across the country,” said Brian Vahaly, Chairman of the Board and President of the USTA. “In partnership with our sections, investing in the development of tennis facilities nationwide helps support the USTA’s mission of growing tennis to inspire healthier people and communities everywhere.”
