The jury unanimously adopted a proclamation recognizing May 2026 as National Tennis Month after a USTA representative presented participation and local economic-impact figures for the Bossier Tennis Center.
Rhonda Rubben, representing the United States Tennis Association (USTA), briefed the jury on local tennis participation and economic impacts tied to the Bossier Tennis Center, saying the center has hosted roughly 200,000 players since 2021 and generated an estimated $2,000,000 in economic impact from statewide adult tournaments since 2015.
