Tennis is a lifetime sport! Come and learn how to play–youth and adults.
OUR VISION: Since our humble beginning in 1995, the JAMES LEWIS TENNIS SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION, INC. (JLTSFI) has been committed to continuing the legacy of its namesake, the late, James “Buddy” Lewis. As a self-taught tennis player, Buddy Lewis’ achievements both on and off the court are unparalleled. Having developed a tremendous passion for the sport he shared with his community, he also realized its potential to be used as a tool to infuse hope, recreation, and encouragement. He generously gave his time volunteering countless hours on court teaching free tennis lessons to children and adults. Recognizing their potential, he encouraged young players to stay in school and focus on their education. Just like Mr. Buddy Lewis had started many years ago, JLTSFI aims to utilize all resources available to provide financial assistance for tennis equipment, tournament fees, transportation fees, facility maintenance, professional development for tennis pros, training opportunities, educational and enrichment opportunities, etc .
