Driven By Passion
The Lock Tennis Foundation (LTF) is a Non-profit Company established by Professional tennis players, Benjamin & Courtney Lock. The foundation’s main Ethos is centered around community service and youth development.
Africa’s younger generation is flooded with talent, but due to financial limitations and the lack of opportunities, many of their talents are never nurtured. Therefore, combining tennis and education, the LTF serves to give hope to underprivileged children around the continent.
How Your Donation Helps
-
Scouting Talent
We identify one or two schools per area and provide equipment, coaching support, and basic infrastructure needed to establish and sustain a functional school tennis program locally successfully.
-
Development
We host regional clinics and invite surrounding schools so interested children can attend, train together, & hear motivational talks from former players, coaches, and parents inspiring participation locally.
-
Expansion
We plan to expand the initial setup by building additional courts, supplying more racquets, increasing access, and ultimately enabling every school to join leagues through phased development nationwide.
Every Bit Helps
Every contribution, no matter the size, plays a meaningful role in changing lives. Through support and partnership, we are able to provide equipment, access to coaching, and opportunities that help young people unlock their potential through tennis and education.
