The Landings Community continues to respond generously to the need in Lee County high schools to support tennis for girls. We thank all the business sponsors, resident patrons, and volunteers! The 4th Annual Lee County Girls’ High School Invitational was held in February 2025 showcasing the talents and sportsmanship of young athletes from across the county.
The DELTA grant (Develop and Enhance Lee County Tennis Athletes) applications were reviewed by leadership and resulted in the awarding of eight grants totaling $8,000 through our Collaboratory fund that provides tax-deductible status for contributions. The recipients of these grants of $1,000 each are Bonita Springs, Cape Coral, Dunbar, Fort Myers, Island Coast, Mariner, Oasis, and Riverdale high schools. Each school will report back to the Invitational regarding how they utilized the funds to promote girls’ tennis, ensuring that the resources are used effectively to enhance the sport and support the athletes.
High school students eagerly await their sessions on The Landings tennis courts.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to our Landings Community and the Administration for their unwavering support. Their contributions have made a significant impact and the girls along with their families and coaches expressed their gratitude for the opportunity to play on our beautiful courts. The collaboration between the community and the schools demonstrates the power of collective effort in fostering growth and development in young athletes.
As we look forward to the future, we remain committed to supporting and nurturing the talents of our girls in tennis, paving the way for continued success and achievement in Lee County high schools.
