Up2Us Sports' Young Voices Series is a series of one-hour virtual events in collaboration with their partner organizations, that give youth an opportunity to speak about the issues that affect them and their communities most.

On Wednesday, March 31st, 2021, Up2Us Sports hosted a conversation with member program Grassroots Tennis & Education to discuss topics ranging from accessibility and favoritism in sports to raising consciousness around implicit biases and stereotypes.

Grassroots Tennis & Education is a nonprofit organization that combines tennis instruction with academic support and personal development to engage youth from ages 5 to 18 in holistic, relationship-first programming.
