TOURNAMENT TRAVEL PROGRAM : STARTS JUNE 1!
Greg Bolitsky has recently joined the TIA family and is the Director of our new and improved TOURNAMENT TRAVEL PROGRAM (TTP). As Director, Greg will 1) create a schedule to ensure he sees all of our competing players at least once a month; 2) support players during and after matches, following up with critiques and advice to improve tournament performance; and 3) provide performance analyses to the players’ other coaches, helping make practices between tournaments even more focused and impactful.

This service is offered, complimentary, to our junior players actively competing in USTA and UTR tournaments.

RISE & RAISE
Rise Together and Raise Awareness

A team of incredible people called Rise Together & Raise was created to help Brandon M. Gidicsin raise money to help find a cure for Hodgkin's lymphoma. Brandon's father, Mark Gidicsin, was diagnosed with this disease and passed when he was 10 years old. It has been Brandon's mission to raise awareness and find a cure to eradicate this disease. All proceeds are sent directly to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society.

We humbly ask for your support.
