Triples Tennis with Dana Mathewson
The event brings together wheelchair and non‑wheelchair players—beginners, recreational players, and experienced athletes—into mixed triples teams.
HPTC, in partnership with the Ryan Shazier Fund and USTA, is excited to host an inclusive Triples Tennis fundraising event focused on community and connection. Players will compete in mixed triples teams, with Dana Mathewson—3x Paralympian and Wimbledon Champion— rotating across courts to play with everyone.
Triples Tennis is fun, social, and beginner‑friendly, featuring three‑player teams, low‑compression balls, and a two‑bounce rule that keeps rallies going and builds confidence.
Register with a team of up to four or sign up solo—we’ll match you with a great group!
