The Net Generation Youth Sports Festival at Serrania Charter Elementary School on Saturday, May 19 was a collaboration between the Southern California Tennis Association, TGA Premier Sports, Metamorphisuqe Cheer, and Friends of Serrania. Over 200 kids and parents participated in tennis, golf, cheer, lacrosse, volleyball, and ultimate Frisbee station activities facilitated by TGA coaches on the Serrania campus in Woodland Hills.
Los Angeles Unified School District Board Vice President Nick Melvoin stopped by to participate in the activities and challenge SCTA/TGA’s very own Amy Feder to a red ball tennis match on the “Net Generation 36’ Stadium Court”!
In addition to receiving a USTA Net Generation PE tennis grant this school year, Serrania’s principal Luis Alvarado was presented at the festival with playground equipment from Play It Forward, a local non-profit that supports play and PE in schools with sports equipment grants.
Young participants were rewarded for completing each sports station activity with prizes. Two lucky athletes won a week each of SCTA/TGA’s Premier Tennis Summer Camp in the San Fernando Valley.
