How would you like to help?
Can you read with and/or tutor a child? Can you toss balls to a beginner? Can you rally with a young player? Can you be a court monitor for 10 & under matches? Can you document an event with photographs? Can you help with fundraising? Do you have other special skills? A's & Aces is able to impact many children each year because of the help from many dedicated volunteers who work with us both on and off the courts. |

Would you like to help?
We welcome volunteers who can assist with tournaments, administrative support, fundraising efforts, marketing, media, and/or working with our children. You do not need to have a lot of experience on the tennis court or assisting in a classroom. You can impact children by being someone who cares about them and is willing to read a book with them, teach them a new life skill, or toss balls to beginners on the tennis court. We seek volunteers with "good heads" and "great hearts" and, if you want to help on the courts, "tennis hands." (We can teach you how to toss balls to beginners if you need help with your "hands.")
All Volunteer Tennis Coaches, Court Monitors, Classroom Reading Assistants, and Tutors must complete a Criminal Background Screening after reading the Youth Protection Policies, and completing a short Online Training Module. Read Details Below.

- VOLUNTEER COURT MONITORS
A's & Aces will host five USTA sanctioned tournaments in 2017 requiring many volunteer court monitors, particularly for age 8 & Under and 10 & Under matches to help young players follow the rules as they learn to compete in these entry-level tournaments. If you are interested, willing and available to commit to a minimum 2-hour shift on any of the tournament dates, please click the REGISTER TO VOLUNTEER button above. We will send you information about red-ball and orange ball 8s/10s format by email, and will schedule a training session during one of our regular Saturday 8s/10s clinics at Joe Brown Park.
