Tennis Without Barriers
Helping young talents win their toughest match.
Tennis is a beautiful sport, but it is also extremely expensive. Court rentals, high-quality rackets, tournament travel, and coaching fees can cost families thousands of euros every month.
The Yellow Ball Endowment Fund was established to identify talented children and youth and lend them a helping hand when their family budget can no longer keep up with the demands of competitive sport. We believe that success on the court should be determined by hard work and talent, not by the parents' bank balance.
