Our 2nd annual event will feature singles and unified doubles play for athletes with cognitive and / or physical disabilities. Primary tournament play is appropriate for athletes of all levels, ages 8 and older, who are playing short- or full-court tennis. Athletes who are ready to practice tossing, catching, and hitting to a target will enjoy our "Tennis 4 All" event on Saturday from 10-11 am and may stay to join us for a picnic lunch from 11-11:45 am.
Unified doubles play will be offered at levels 2, 3, 4, and 5. Singles play will be offered at levels 3, 4, and 5. For a description of levels of play, check out our Playbook page.
Tennis matches will be scheduled Saturday and Sunday (depending on number of athletes), with a Pizza and Pins player party on Saturday night at Bowling World of Cookeville. The schedule will be determined based on number of participants, and athletes will play timed matches. Advance registration is required. All events will be played outdoors, and rain may cause schedule delays or modifications of formats. We are excited to host our second local tournament, and we hope you will join us!
