Birmingham Area Tennis Association Inc

Our organization strives to emulate the lessons of Arthur Ashe, "Our idea is to use tennis as a way to gain and hold the attention of young people...so that we can teach them about matters more important than tennis".  LETT Program teaches year round tennis and life skills to youth ages 6-18 years of age. We provide all youth the opportunity to play tennis no matter the econcomic or georgraphic location.  We offer competition level instruction as well beginner level.  We even offer free parent lessons several times a year to empower the parents to get on the court and be active with their child/family.  Our in school programs offer tennis assistance during the PE classes.  We loan portable tennis nets, racquets and balls to the schools.  LETT came make a tennis court happen in anywhere there is flat surface. The function of tennis in our programs is more than just to provide a way for children to exercise; it provides a “hook” that motivates children to actively participate in other program activities.
