Abilities Tennis Association of North Carolina (ATANC) brings fitness, friendship, and community to people with intellectual disabilities through the highly adaptable sport of tennis. Spending time on the court helps people with intellectual disabilities develop vital social skills and independence, forge friendships and meaningful connections outside of their families and inner circle, increase their physical and mental health, build self-confidence, and realize their own potential. We are a 501(c)(3) serving over 500 athletes across North Carolina, at all levels of play, ages 8 and up, through 23 clinic locations, 7 tournaments, a host of play days, Unified Doubles, community outreach, and online fitness. We provide training to coaches and volunteers plus opportunities for student leadership. We’re dedicated to ensuring all programs are free of charge to participants.
