(PA) Radnor

Father-daughter program directors Jason and Leila are so excited to launch the program at Radnor Valley Country Club! After volunteering at the nearby Drexel Hill location in the fall and spring, we were looking to create continuity throughout the winter months. The most important thing to us is that participants and volunteers have a great time playing tennis and making friends. Please reach out to us at radnor@aceingautism.org with any questions!

Trained Program Directors and volunteers lead participants through our curriculum. At the very heart, tennis is a social game that furnishes a natural opportunity to develop and reinforce skills that many children on the spectrum find a struggle: turn-taking, focus and attending, motor planning, fine and gross motor skills, and more. Our Program Directors meet athletes where they are at and progress through our curriculum at their own pace.

We offer weekly tennis clinics for children with autism between the ages of 5 and 18. Our clinics run for one hour every Saturday for five weeks. Volunteers are paired up with a participant, hopefully for the duration of the session. The children in our program do not need prior tennis knowledge as our curriculum & volunteers support each child’s individual abilities and needs!
