Wheelchair Tennis

Group of people in wheelchairs playing tennis indoors, with tennis balls in the air. The setting has a high ceiling, and a banner on the right side reads 'Polar Doubles Tennis Tournament.' The logo on the top left says 'Western Wake Tennis' with a tennis ball and racket graphic.

Our amazing partners, Western Wake Tennis and Raleigh Tennis are proud to offer weekly tennis clinics for those of all abilities!

Free clinics will be held year-round at Cary Tennis Park on Saturdays, Pleasant Park in Apex on Thursday afternoons from September to May, and Millbrook Tennis Center in Raleigh on Sundays based on court/pro availability. These clinics are designed for anyone ages 10 & over and any level of player from never played before to experienced.

If you would like to participate, please visit their websites using the links above for detailed instructions. For specific dates, you can also visit B2S’s Triangle Adapted Sports Calendar and filter by sport to get a comprehensive list of all available sessions.

If equipment is fully booked or temporarily unavailable through WWTA or Raleigh Tennis, please do not hesitate to contact Bridge2Sports and we would be happy to lend you equipment or anything else that would help you participate!
