OPT sponsored our 2nd First Volley Tennis Clinic at Circle C Tennis Club in Austin, Texas on October the 16th. We had 20 people attending—amputee players as well as wheelchair players.
This years clinic was especially exciting for us as legendary tennis player, Dennis Ralston attended. Mr. Ralston won Wimbledon and also French Open in the 70s. Dennis lost his limb in the spring and now is sharing his tennis expertise with his fellow amputees. It was a great day and honor to have him at our clinic.
We would also like to thank Fernando Velasco, General Manager and Director of Circle C Tennis Club, for hosting our event and joining in with his expertise and hospitality.
We would also like to thank all our participants for coming and we know you had a good time! We will see you next October for our 3rd annual.
