Changing a community, one title at a time; Sport is a phenomenon!

Sport is just amazing! We sometimes forget how it can unite people, communities, and even nations. Sport is able to heal deep, hurtful wounds. This was evident in Dunblane, Scotland where Andy Murray came home a hero. This small community scared by its own tragedy is slowly turning the page towards the positive and Andy Murray is at forefront.

In 1996, a madman walked into the gym of Dublane's primary school opening fire senselessly killing 16 children and a teacher. For ten straight days, Dublane was painted in black as people were in an out of the cemetery mourning and burring their own. This heinous act scarred the small town forever. One of its sons, is making that painful scar smaller and smaller by his triumphs on the tennis court.

There are some stories that can humble us, shake us to the core, and/or touch us deeply. I had one of our players send me this AMAZING story a couple of days ago from the New York Times and I just had to share it with all of you. Click on the link below and see how tennis can affect the life of people positively.

Inspirational tennis

This is exactly why tennis is such a wonderful sport. As difficult as tennis is, it inspires us to have a sense of community. It is inspirational to watch those young blind men & women learning the game and successfully playing it.

Thank you to all the volunteers at Tennis Serves. What you do is truly remarkable and inspirational!
