Tennis Corps is a premiere tennis mentoring program for Veterans and junior players that promotes social inclusion, tolerance, and passion for the sport. In its debut, ThanksUSA and JTCC, one of the nation's leading tennis training facilities, have partnered to connect aspiring tennis players with military Veterans, creating an environment of positive role models and community engagement at the club. With mutual respect and camaraderie, Veterans also benefit through the rehabilitative effects of weekly adaptive tennis clinics and social interaction.
