What a racket
Tennis is a simple game to start playing; all you need is a ball and a racket. This summer, the New York Sportimes of World Team Tennis and the USTA Eastern section are making it that much easier. The first 3,000 kids coming out to see John McEnroe and the Sportimes play at Randall's Island for their seven July home dates will get a free racquet, compliments of the Sportimes and the USTA .
"To start playing tennis, all children need is a wall, a raccket and a ball. But equipment can get expensive. By putting racket in the hands of children, we hope to give them a chance to enjoy the sport that we love," said the USTA's Michelle Blake . Michelle should know, her brother is tennis star James Blake, who plays against the Sportimes for Boston on July 7. For more details visit
