ABOUT FTA: In October, 1975, a small group of local tennis enthusiasts and visionaries met at Lady Bird Johnson Memorial Park to create the Fredericksburg Tennis Association (FTA), a non profit 501 C Corporation. Its stated purpose, "promoting greater interest in tennis locally as an ideal sport for our community", gathered momentum over the years resulting in an organization today five times its original size. Some of those early players remain active today lending credence to our current moniker, "providing sport, fitness and friendship for a lifetime".
FTA has evolved into an official USTA certified Community Tennis Association, an organized group of dedicated volunteers and professionals who provide and support programs that promote and develop the growth of tennis. While our members enjoy our many tennis activities we do much more and work very closely with community government and schools as partners in promoting the growth of tennis, fitness and facilities.
The HEB Tennis Center at the local High School is a direct result of grass roots fund raising by the FTA. Many improvements made to the Lady Bird courts over the years have been accomplished with FTA dollars raised through membership dues, tournaments, donations, sponsorships, grants and old fashion diplomacy. Each year graduating seniors are the recipients of FTA scholarships. We sponsor leagues, tournaments and socials to all members and visitors of all ages at a price everyone can afford.
