Abilities Tennis Association of North Carolina (ATANC) has created opportunities and transformed the lives of individuals with intellectual disabilities through the sport of tennis since 2007.
As a statewide Community Tennis Association, ATANC's mission is to provide fitness, foster community, and champion inclusion to individuals with intellectual disabilities across NC through adaptive tennis. We offer tennis opportunities to more than 600 athletes each year by offering a variety of instructional and competive tennis programming. We provide tennis clinis in approximately 30 locations and host 6 tournaments across the state each year.
All of our programming is provided free of charge. Our athletes are all ages from 8 years old and up, come from different backgrounds, and have varying abilities.
Together with our many partners and volunteers, we are working to make North Carolina's tennis courts a place where everyone can thrive.
