3rd Annual BlazeSports Tennis Tournament –  April 27th

This event is open to all skill levels, from the new athlete just introduced to tennis to more competitive players. We will offer a unique skills competition and a Run ‘N Roll doubles tournament for multiple skill levels.

Skills Competition

Compete by participating in various events/challenge that test your skills such as chair skills, hitting accuracy, ball handing, strokes, and much more! Each event is scored and tracked against your respective group.

Run ‘N Roll Tournament

The Run ‘N Roll Tennis Tournament is a doubles style tournament where the teams are comprised of a standing player and a wheelchair player. The tournament play will be divided by skill level with the goal of 3 games played per team. If paired as a single, we will pair you with a partner by your level of play.

“BlazeSports has truly helped me to thrive both on and off the court. In just a few years with Blaze, I have grown my leadership skills and self-confidence exponentially. But I think my favorite part has been forming friendships with other kids like me.”
