HQ Tennis Foundation, a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, is partnering with the USTA (United States Tennis Association) to resurface the Jackie Robinson Courts. Coach Frances Nadine Ferdinand, the founder of HQ Tennis, is committed to creating opportunities and pathways to community enrichment, by hosting programs and fundraisers, offering private and group lessons, and acting as a community liaison with the city to voices concerns and make suggestions held by the community. Ferdinand would like to build a community of members who will assist in these endeavors. Together, Jackie Robinson courts will be an even greater place to play!
