ITA Announces Sixteen USTA Multicultural Grants Recipients
While in Naples, the group of beneficiaries will participate in a series of clinics and events to assist them in their profession, including the Multicultural Coaching Education Symposium presented by USTA Player Development. This training session will provide college coaches with insight into the teaching and coaching philosophy of USTA National Coaches, while also serving as a forum for strategies to increase the number of multicultural tennis coaches and players.
Coach Ferreira comments: "As a young tennis coach and tennis professional, I am hungry for opportunities to meet other college coaches, learn about our industry, the trends, as well as the current issues, challenges and topics of discussion. I am now ready to step up to the next level, and attend the ITA convention in Florida, where I will have the chance to personally meet, learn and interact with these mentors, while sharing my experiences and struggles with one another."
