Our Mission

The Racquets For Life Foundation 501©3 has the mission of breaking down the financial barriers for children and young adults through age 25 to allow for the introduction and sustainability of the lifetime activity of racquet sports from introductory levels through to the highest level of national and international competition. Whether it be mentorship, educational support, coaching, programming, equipment, travel, the RFL Foundation will ensure equal opportunity is provided to create a level playing field.


Why racquet sports?

However, not all have the resources to be exposed to or excel at the highest levels in the lifetime activities racquet sports!
