Get Your Name on a Brick at the US Open and Help Florida Grassroots Tennis

By USTA Florida Section Foundation Staff 

Cement your name in history on the US Open’s Avenue of Aces and donate to the USTA Florida Section Foundation to assist grassroots tennis in Florida — at the same time.

The Brick & Paver Program is a unique and limited opportunity to connect yourself to the game’s legendary champions and one of the world’s greatest sporting events, the US Open. And now as a Florida tennis supporter, when you cement your name in history on the Avenue of Aces, 50% of the proceeds will go toward the USTA Florida Section Foundation.

Create a lasting impression on the next generation of kids who love the game and all of its benefits. Help “pave the way” for them both on and off the court.

The Avenue of Aces is the eye-catching stretch of engraved pavers at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. Ten “neighborhoods” are each “home” to a former US Open champion, including Andre Agassi (sold out), Billie Jean King, Chris Evert, Stefanie Graf, Ivan Lendl, John McEnroe, Martina Navratilova, Pete Sampras, and wheelchair tennis pioneer Randy Snow. You can select where you want to reside — your new home away from home.

Since 2010 the USTA Florida Section Foundation has awarded more than $1,300,000 in grants for tennis programs serving people of all ages and abilities throughout Florida. To support Florida recreational grassroots tennis with a “Play Tennis!” plate go here.

With a mission of “Changing Lives through Tennis,” the USTA Florida Section Foundation provides financial support to organizations that help people of all ages and abilities improve their health and quality of life through the great game of tennis.
