Riverside Tennis Center is proud to share an exciting milestone for our young athletes. On August 30, twelve of our players, ages 8-12, participated in the US Open’s Net Generation On‑Court Experience - an extraordinary opportunity to step onto a stadium court at the historic Billie Jean King National Tennis Center.

The adventure began the moment they left Wichita. Emmett and his grandpa Kevin found themselves on the same flight as Brent and Hayden, turning travel day into a fun start to the journey. After arriving in New York, the group made the most of the evening with a quick visit to Times Square, taking in the bright lights and unforgettable atmosphere.

Once inside the US Open stadium, the experience became even more memorable. The kids received instructions on how to enter the court, practiced lining up in the tunnel, and learned the steps leading up to their moment on the court. Their highlight came when they stepped into the stadium and hit balls on one of tennis’s most iconic courts - a moment they will cherish for years to come.

We are thrilled for our players and grateful for the opportunity to represent Riverside Tennis Center at such a prestigious event. It was a wonderful experience for these young athletes, and we were excited to cheer them on as they made lasting memories at the US Open!
