USTA Florida is kicking off its celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month this September with several family play events and profiles of local members in the Sunshine state’s Hispanic tennis community. Hispanic culture has a rich history and influence on Florida tennis, seen from the Panhandle all the way through the state’s southernmost counties.
This fall, USTA Florida will host a series of events encouraging the growth of the Hispanic population participation in tennis, coupled with family play opportunities so the whole family can get involved. USTA Florida takes pride in promoting family play and the bonding experiences it brings to families both on and off the court.
