Palmer Park Tennis + Tiny Tennis + Detroit PAL
We were fortunate enough to help and host the Detroit PAL at the Palmer Park and Academy for their tiny tennis program this past summer and fall. The program was very beneficial to our tennis community, especially at the Palmer Park tennis courts, and we are all about supporting and giving back, particularly when it comes to our youth and future athletes. We look forward to continuing this partnership and providing more tennis lessons in Detroit.
