What's a Tennis Pantry?

A USTA Southern Tennis Pantry is a simple, self-serve box stocked with free-to-borrow tennis equipment like racquets and balls. It's a great way to invite more people to play, especially those new to the game or without access to gear.

Inside your pantry, you’ll find a mix of:

  • Shorter racquets for all ages
  • Red and orange balls (which bounce lower and travel slower — great for kids, beginners, or anyone playing on smaller courts!)

Anyone can borrow the equipment, enjoy a game of tennis, and return it afterward — keeping the fun going for the whole community.

Tennis is always open for everyone. Play tennis!
