Your support strengthens the tennis community in the Berkeley area
Thank you to all those who have donated to Free Racquet Club. Your donations have allowed FRC to continue its program of providing tennis racquets, balls, and courts to youths in the Berkeley area. This club was founded on the idea that a positive and close-knit community can be built around the sport of tennis. In each of our practices, we stress sportsmanship, perseverance, discipline, and friendship. FRC is also ambitious in its outreach. We hope that with time we can continue growing as a community and provide our services to an ever-expanding area. Students and parents have been very enthusiastic about our club and this, in turn, has made the experience so enjoyable for us. FRC would greatly appreciate any support from those who are interested in our cause.
If you have any unused tennis equipment, please don't hesitate to contact us. All tennis gear is used exclusively at our lessons. We realize that racquets, balls, and particularly lessons can be costly. We don't want these issues to prevent students from having the opportunity to learn and enjoy tennis.
