Tennis Without Borders
A not-for-profit organization, Tennis without Borders offers scholarships and assistance with school fees to young tennis students in developing countries. “A few years ago my wife and I went to Uganda to teach tennis, and I realized how little the developing nations have in all aspects of their lives, and that they have almost nothing when it comes to tennis equipment,” Gunterman said. “I am excited that the release of my first book will support Tennis Without Borders and will hopefully provide opportunities to tennis students throughout the world.”
