Baton Rouge selected as one of the top 10 tennis towns in the United States
The USTA asked cities around America if their city has what it takes to be the Best Tennis Town.  A total of 56 communities including Baton Rouge entered the contest. 
Each community submitted one video showing the Community's spirit and passion for tennis and the impact of tennis on an individual, an organization and/or the Community as a whole.  Letters of recommendation were also submitted by community members, businesses and the Mayor.   The winners were determined by the general public in a month long online vote during the summer.  The city of Baton Rouge was selected as one of the top 10 tennis towns in the United States and received an Honorable Mention award.  The city was awarded with a $2,000 tennis equipment package to be used for increasing community wide tennis programming.  To view the video and letters of submission click on the following link:
