NYC Racquet Sports Racquet Donation Program
Do you have an old racquet gathering dust in your closet? Don’t let it go to waste! At NYC Racquet Sports, we believe every player deserves a chance to fall in love with the game, regardless of their circumstances.
Through our community donation program and our partnership with the NYJTL’s Cary Leeds Tennis Center, we take your used tennis racquets, give them a fresh tune-up right here on 35th Street, and place them directly into the hands of local junior programs, which serve the players who need them most.
