About

Courts of Hope Tennis is a student led initiative founded by 10th grader Azaniya Genda to make tennis accessible to everyone. We provide free practice sessions for middle and high school students, from beginners to experienced players, who are serious about improving their game but may not have the resources for expensive training.

Our program connects students with others at similar skill levels, creating consistent practice, real game experience, and meaningful friendships. Beyond tennis, we focus on discipline, confidence, academic growth, and community values.

We believe talent is everywhere, but opportunity is not. Courts of Hope Tennis, founded by Azaniya Genda, is committed to changing that by creating a space where every student has the chance to learn, compete, and succeed.


Why It Was Founded

Courts of Hope Tennis was founded by Azaniya Genda, a dedicated and intellectually inclined 10th grade student and passionate tennis player who saw firsthand how many talented and motivated players were being left behind simply because they could not afford lessons or access consistent practice.

Driven by both passion and purpose, Azaniya created Courts of Hope Tennis to provide a free and supportive environment where students can connect, train, and grow together. What began as one student’s vision is now a growing movement focused on giving others the same opportunity to succeed, regardless of financial limitations.


Call for Support

Courts of Hope Tennis is more than a program. It is a community effort.

We invite parents, coaches, and community members to partner with us in making a difference. Your time, mentorship, and support can help shape the next generation of student athletes by providing guidance, structure, and opportunity.

Together, we can open more doors, build stronger players, and impact lives far beyond the court.
