SR 105, McNerney.
WHEREAS, On May 21, 1881, the United States Tennis Association Incorporated (USTA), originally known as the United States National Lawn Tennis Association, was founded in the City of New York, to create rules and standards for the emerging game of lawn tennis; and
WHEREAS, The USTA is the nonprofit, national governing body for tennis in the United States, and leads the promotion and growth of the sport at every level of play, from beginners to professionals at the United States Open Tennis Championships; and
WHEREAS, The USTA is the largest tennis organization in the world, with over 550,000 members from every corner of the country; and
WHEREAS, The USTA proudly partners with local tennis programs to showcase the important health, social, and educational benefits of tennis, and make the sport available to everyone, regardless of age, environment, condition, or ability, through its USTA adaptive tennis grants; and
WHEREAS, The latest research by the Physical Activity Council shows that more than 25,700,000 Americans played tennis in 2024, an unprecedented 46 percent increase in participation over 2019 and the highest number of players since the Physical Activity Council study began in 2007; and
WHEREAS, By increasing the accessibility of tennis for Californians of all ages and abilities, the USTA has contributed to making California communities happier and healthier; and
WHEREAS, USTA has declared the month of May as National Tennis Month to encourage players, organizations, facilities, retailers, tennis manufacturers and more to promote local programs and activities at parks and facilities to showcase tennis and spread the word about the sport and its benefits, and to help players and nonplayers alike find courts and play opportunities in their communities; now, therefore, be it
Resolved by the Senate of the State of California, That the Senate hereby recognizes the month of May 2026, and every May thereafter, as National Tennis Month in California and extends to all those affiliated with USTA sincere best wishes for the future; and be it further
