Established in 1969 by Arthur Ashe, Charlie Pasarell and Sheridan Snyder, the National Junior Tennis League (NJTL) has had a significant impact on the lives of many of our nation's youth.  It seeks to develop the character of young people through tennis using the ideals and life of Ashe to reach out to those who might not otherwise have the opportunity to fully develop their tennis skills.  As Milwaukee's official NJTL program, MTEF was formed in 2002 with the goal of providing central-city children a neighborhood-based, free program that combines education, leadership, teamwork, mentoring and life skills with the sport of tennis.  Since that time, MTEF has steadily grown to a year-round program offering a pathway of opportunities to Milwaukee's underserved youth.  Last year over 4,200 children participated in the TEAM program and we reached the milestone of serving our ten thousandth child.

One of only four rallies offered in the Midwest Section, this rally is one of three special events offered during the July 25 – 26 weekend.  On Friday, July 25 we sponsored a MTEF Pro-Am Fundraiser and Reception at the Milwaukee Country Club tennis courts from 5:00 – 9:00 p.m. which included an opportunity to play doubles with and against Gene Mayer. On Saturday, July 26 there was a nine-court Super Saturday tennis clinic from 8:30 a.m.  – 12:30 p.m. for country club members and their guests.  Besides Mayer, this clinic featured some of the area's top tennis instructors.  Saturday's festivities concluded with the NJTL Rally from 1:30-4:30 pm at Merrill Park.
