Welcome to Game. Set. Change.
Changing the direction of lives through the sport of tennis.
At Game. Set. Change., we are passionately committed to enriching the lives of underserved youths in Chicago through the transformative power of tennis.
Empowering Youth Through Tennis
Tennis Training for All Levels
Our tennis programs cater to juniors from all walks of life, especially those without formal athletic training. Our skilled coaches focus on more than just tennis techniques; they are dedicated to nurturing essential life values such as discipline, teamwork, and resilience. We aim to build not just skilled tennis players, but confident, determined individuals who harbor a deep love and respect for the game.
Academic Empowerment
We firmly believe in the adage "student-athlete," with an emphasis on "student." Education is the cornerstone of a bright future, which is why we offer robust academic support alongside our athletic training. Our team of volunteer tutors and mentors provide tailored academic assistance, ensuring our participants are equipped to excel in school and pursue higher education opportunities.
Strengthening Community Ties
Our commitment extends beyond individual development to fostering a strong, inclusive community. Through diverse community engagement efforts, we encourage our youths to give back, develop leadership skills, and become agents of positive change in their neighborhoods. From community clean-ups to collaborations with local organizations, we create platforms for our participants to contribute meaningfully to their community.
