Join the USTA TikTok Challenge: Show Off Your Skills For May 14 National Day of Learning

Dear NJTL Leaders and USTA Foundation Family,

In advance of the quickly approaching May 14 National Day of Learning, we're excited to announce that the United States Tennis Association (USTA) has launched a tennis-themed TikTok Challenge. Now it's time for you and your organization’s participants to shine and show off your skills and creativity!

It's easy and fun to participate! All you need is a TikTok account and a tennis ball—or “anything” that can substitute as a ball. Then submit your TikTok posts.

Need some inspiration? Check out our launch video here or USTA Foundation Player & Celebrity Council Member, Thaddeus Bullard, aka WWE Superstar Titus O’Neil’s #TennisEveryWay video here.

TikTok Challenge Instructions

The first step is to Film Your Video:

1: Take a tennis ball (or similar item) and another random item of your choice that shows your personality! No racquets please!

2: Show the “ball” in one hand and present the random item to the camera.

3: Video yourself to show how many times you can bounce the “ball” while using this random item as a "racquet." If this is too easy for you, then get creative and go under the leg, around the back, etc!

Submit your TikTok post with #TennisEveryWay and @USTA and it could be featured during the May 14 National Day of Learning.*

We can't wait to see your #TennisEveryWay creativity on TikTok!

*Please note, if you have been invited to take part in the May 14 National Day of Learning, a release and waiver will be required to be signed in advance.
