Join our Buddy Up Tennis South Bend Team!
Buddies are the nucleus to the success of Buddy Up Tennis! Each Athlete is partnered with a Buddy who provides encouragement, coaching, and support throughout the entire clinic. Buddies include siblings and friends of Athletes, area high school, college and graduate students, as well as adults with a variety of professional backgrounds and skills. Buddy Up Tennis provides a fun and purposeful way to give back to the community.
Do you like to encourage, empower others, and engage in activities with individuals? Buddy Up Tennis is constantly searching for individuals who want to make a positive personal impact while serving as a great role model to our Athletes.
We are always looking for more volunteer Buddies for each of our locations. No tennis skills are required. The most important qualities are a positive attitude, willingness to help, and being ready for a fun and rewarding experience!
