JRP Nomination Form

In 2002, CALTA announced the establishment of the CALTA Junior Recognition Program, designed to promote junior girls' tennis in our area, support junior girls in their tennis activities, help those with limited opportunities, and reward exceptional achievement.

Through monetary grants we recognize ability and help train it, we recognize effort and encourage it, we recognize achievement and reward it, and we recognize need and try to fill the gaps. To date we have done everything from the basics of putting shoes on feet and racquets in hands to funding lessons and clinics, sending girls to tennis camps, and helping out with tournament and travel expenses for the very serious. Recipients may use their grants for any tennis-related endeavor although specific recommendations would be helpful.

All Tennis Professionals and School Coaches in the Charleston Area are invited each year to submit applications on behalf of junior girls for CALTA's Junior Recognition Program. In October 2023, the CALTA Junior Recognition Committee sent notifications to local tennis coaches and club professionals and the nomination form was available here. In December the Board met to review the nominations and all 75 nominees were recognized.

Through its 2023-2024 program, CALTA has recognized 548 junior girls and has disbursed 970 grants totaling $258,500.
