We can use your help!! Courts 1, 2, 5 & 6 desperately need to be resurfaced. JWTTA I had raised $8000 which covers courts 1 & 2. USTA TN has donated $2000 (thank you)! So it’s up to us players to donate the other $5000. Anything helps! Also it’s tax deductible since JWTTA is a 501c3.
Donate by sending to JWTTA’s Venmo – @jwtta or mail a check to:
Jackson West-TN Tennis, P.O. Box 10601, Jackson, TN 38308
Be sure to check the schedule as we have matches starting at 6:00 PM and 7:30 PM. Players should report to the courts 30 minutes before match and check in at desk.
WE ARE EXCITED TO HAVE YOU PLAY!!! Contact Ted with questions: 731-697-6927

USTA Virtual 5K – Run for Racquets
Please help us put Racquets in the Hands of Children! USTA Southern will donate a racquet to Jackson for our underserved kids as well as funds being donated to the USTA Southern Foundation and the Tennessee Patrons Foundation! These foundations are the charitable arm of USTA that help to bring tennis to underserved populations and other things to support those in need. Please sign up for the Virtual 5K to put a racquet in a child’s hands and help some.
Isn’t this better than getting a tshirt or a medal – to put the money for your entry fee to help people!!! (Shhhh– we won’t tell if you don’t actually run it!) Help us support others!!

Team ID: 7042412192 Rally Cats // 7042412195 Rally Cats Plus
Rally Cats was developed by the United States Tennis Association (USTA) of Tennessee to introduce kids ages 4- 10 to the game of tennis and keep them on the court for years to come. The sessions are an hour long and each program consists of 4-6 hours of instruction over a number of weeks. Rally Cats uses modified equipment better suited for young kids like smaller rackets, pop-up nets, and balls that bounce lower and move slower than a regular tennis ball. This means kids are rallying sooner, getting less frustrated, and having more fun, which is the most important part!
What is Rally Cats Plus? Rally Cats Plus is an introductory tennis program for players aged 11-14 years old. The program follows ability and age appropriate curriculum and uses orange and green dot tennis balls to make the entry into tennis successful and fun for all! Before registering, please contact USTA Tennessee (marissakovach@ustatn.com) to make sure that this program is the right fit for your player!
** This program is Rain or Shine! Rain location will be announced as needed! **
