The Omaha Tennis Buddies program is a partnership of athletes with disabilities and tennis enthusiasts in the Omaha community. This program supplements the tennis opportunities provided to the athletes via Special Olympics Nebraska.
The Tennis Buddies train throughout the year both on and off of the court. In the summer, tennis practices are held at Ralston High School. Along with other volunteers, the Creighton University Men's and Women's teams work out with the Tennis Buddies.
Tennis Buddies is fully supported by grants and donations. The program is free of charge and the instructors and coaches are volunteers.
