“I love teaching Love Serving Autism classes! It brings me great joy to see these kids progress not only in their tennis skill development but also in their life skills development! As a Special Olympics volunteer coach, I am constantly amazed at the level of sportsmanship the athletes display so readily! I have found that these athletes teach me more than I could ever teach them!”Joshua Silver Banks Scholarship Fund
Please consider donating to this scholarship fund that provides tennis classes to Love Serving Autism families in need.
My son has autism and tennis is the only sport he chooses to play. Love Serving Autism has given my child a chance to participate in tennis at his pace, at his level, and within his limitations. Not only does it promote activity, but it helps increase his motor skills, builds confidence, and he has a blast!

Parents understand how difficult it is to find community-based sports and activities for children with Autism Spectrum Disorders.
Let’s look at tennis. Tennis is an individual sport that can provide youth with physical and cognitive developmental tools. It also builds self-esteem through peer interaction and socialization as well as develops language skills.
Figuring things out on his/her own helps to improve cognitive skills and each student can fine-tune motor skills and hand-eye coordination.
Each student has his/her own set of needs and lessons can be tailored to fit all children with special needs.
