Tennis and learning opportunities: After School, Camps & Events
We believe that tennis is more than just a sport—it's a vehicle for positive change and personal development. Our UnitedSets Tennis & Learning initiatives, in partnership with Community Literacy Events Inc. (501(c)(3)) NJTL, provides tennis and educational programming in underserved communities in Long Island, NYC, Westchester, and Northern NJ.
Our community initiatives combine tennis instruction with educational components, creating a holistic approach that develops both athletic and academic skills. We believe that the discipline, focus, and strategic thinking required in tennis can translate directly to improved learning outcomes and life skills.
We bring tennis, literacy, and social-emotional learning directly to students through afterschool programs, and school-based events that help children build confidence, focus, teamwork, and a lifelong connection to learning.
At Community Literacy Club, our afterschool programs at community centers use tennis as a tool for learning, movement, and personal growth.

"The UnitedSets program at our school has been transformative. Students who never had access to tennis before are now enthusiastic players, and we've seen improvements in their focus, confidence, and academic performance. The way they integrate social emotional learning with tennis instruction is truly impressive."
