Attention High School and College Teams: Volunteer Give Back Program Back in 2023!

Thanks to an extremely generous anonymous donor and our incredible partners at USTA Northern, the Volunteer Give Back program is back in 2023!

Players and family members of high school and college tennis teams have an opportunity to fundraise for their tennis programs by volunteering at the 2023 Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic. USTA Northern will give your high school/college team $10 for every volunteer hour completed, up to $500 per team (Note: Must be a public high school and boys and girls programs are two programs). And for the second consecutive year, through the incredible generosity of an anonymous donor, every volunteer hour worked will receive an additional $10 with another $10 going to Pine Tree Apple Classic Fund to support the cause (Note: Public AND Private High Schools and Colleges are eligible for this)! That is $20/hour for your tennis program just by giving back to the sport you love at the best tennis event in the Twin Cities! All volunteers also receive a 2023 Pine Tree Apple Tennis Classic t-shirt! 

Volunteers are needed in a variety of areas including event set up and take down, decorating, food tent, merchandise, player and volunteer check in, greeters, and more! 

Note: Please remember to enter your high school/college programs name when you register to receive credit!

For more information or questions, please contact Lisa Mushett at ​lisa@ptacf.org.
