PTR on Campus addresses this issue and will help ensure a younger generation of tennis teaching professionals will continue to grow the game. In an effort to grow the game, college students are offered the opportunity to learn to teach tennis, obtain liability insurance and maintain PTR membership at prices most students can afford. In exchange, students are asked to give back to their communities by providing 10 hours of free tennis lessons. Through the education provided by the PTR on Campus program, students who teach tennis can help pay their tuition, supplement their income, or save for the future. In addition, they will be prepared for a full or part-time career in tennis if they so choose.
