About

Our History:
In 1998, Marcia Devens, an avid Tennis Player and a 13-year breast cancer survivor, founded Tennis for Life to introduce tennis to others with her circumstances who would not typically consider tennis as an option to aid in both the physical and psychological recovery process. Tennis for Life is committed to support and enhance the lives of Breast Cancer Survivors.

Our Mission:
Believing physical mobility and ongoing peer support are essential to the recovery of breast cancer survivors, Tennis for Life provides the resources, opportunity, and motivation for its participants to regain upper-body mobility, develop stamina, and enhance their morale through the sport of tennis.

Tennis for Life provides complimentary tennis lessons and court time to introduce breast cancer survivors to the benefits that tennis can bring to their lives. Tennis for Life also provides an environment for survivors to share their experiences and feelings in a relaxed social atmosphere.
