Rally for Tennis is a student-led 501(c)(3) founded in 2021. We partner with National Junior Tennis & Learning Centers across the country to support their year-round programs. We connect high school and college students with kids through mentorship, tutoring, and tennis to teach teamwork, confidence, and a sense of belonging. Through mentorship and fundraising, we help our NJTL partners grow stronger, reach more kids, and create lasting opportunities. Tennis is the game. Mentorship is the mission — and the mission never stops. Together, we’re building character, community, and connection not just for a day or a season, but through relationships that keep making an impact year-round.
Dear Rally for Tennis Team, On behalf of everyone at Greater Newark Tennis and Education, I want to extend our deepest gratitude for your ongoing support. Your vision for RFT, your efforts in executing and reaching such a bold goal, and your commitment to our kids is truly extraordinary.
Dear RFT Brown, Thank you so much for letting me come to your University and play tennis and games with you guys. One the way home we kept saying how much we loved it and can’t wait to back back and see everyone soon. You guys are the best.
I love being apart of Advantage Kids because it lets me meet new people and do activities I have never done before. I also love to see my friends at Rally For Tennis and play tennis with them and learn other things from them. I have more confidence and feel more independent.
Thank you RFT for helping me with my math this week after tennis. I did much better on my test. I hope next time we can also work on getting my serve to go inside the court.
Thank you RFT for helping me be better at tennis and also better in school. I hope I am as good at tennis when I grow up. And school too.
Thank you, RFT, for all you do to make tennis and reading fun for Elisesi. She loves playing tennis, mostly when she gets to partner with someone from RFT. We really appreciate all you do for our kids.
