JTA’s Inspiration: Jamie!
Jamie Alexa Frank was born on January 6, 1998. Tragically, she was afflicted with a preventable bacterial infection that resulted in significant brain damage, a seizure disorder, and multiple other medical issues.
Despite these adversities, Jamie was a happy and loving daughter and sister. She had a passion for music, swimming, and being with her family. One of her very favorite activities was playing assisted tennis with her brother and sister.
Hearing Jamie laugh while hitting tennis balls always brought joy to the entire family.
Her beautiful spirit inspired the Frank family to bring the love of tennis to individuals with disabilities and their families.
Jamie passed away on April 23, 2016, shortly after her 18th birthday.
Tennis is for everyone!
Through adaptive programming, anyone can play tennis.
We know how challenging it can be to find the right program that meets your child’s needs and special considerations. It can be overwhelming at times!
Our FREE monthly clinic includes professional tennis instructors and Pediatric Clinical Specialists, as well as dedicated volunteers. Our goal is that each participant receives personalized attention and support to help them thrive in a safe and inclusive setting.
Our program attempts to accommodate all skill levels, from those who cannot hold a tennis racquet to those who can rally over the net with another player. Individuals with mobility devices are welcome.

Join our JTA Community!
Each athlete is paired with a volunteer/staff for ample help and supervision. Parents are welcome to participate as a volunteer or socialize with others during the clinic.
After signing your player in, your athlete will be partnered with a buddy.
Caregivers can watch or sign up to be a volunteer!
Once on the court, each athlete is encouraged to participate at their level. Some athletes may roll the ball, while others may rally over the net with another player.
Through the help of our Pediatric Clinical Specialist, we find the best way for each participant to enjoy tennis.
Every clinic includes a fun group obstacle course! Breaks are encouraged throughout the activity to ensure players are well-hydrated. And refreshments are provided at the end.
