TAF TENNIS LONG ISLAND CELEBRATES ITS 50TH YEAR WITH A 1970S STYLE TENNIS PARTY

In the summer of 1976, when Bjorn Borg was the hottest commodity on the international tennis circuit, TAF Tennis Ladders of Long Island (formerly known as TAF or Tennis Association of Farmingdale), was formed as an inexpensive means for people of all abilities to play tennis in the Farmingdale area to meet the intense excitement around the game.  This summer, TAF Tennis Ladders celebrates its 50^th year in existence outlasting any other Long Island community tennis organization.

On Saturday, June 28^th from 9.00am – 2.30pm, (rain date Sunday, June 29^th), TAF Tennis Ladders members and their guests will congregate at the annual tennis picnic where they’ll be fun drills and round robin tennis play across the 8 Farmingdale College courts, with tennis pros on hand to assist. There will be a picnic style lunch and free raffles. For this special celebration year, we will include prizes for the most authentic 1970’s tennis outfits, and wooden racquets will be on show for photo opportunities, and possibly some games.

TAF Members and their families and all tennis lovers who would like to jump into the fun are welcome to attend. If you register in advance via www.taftennis.org, and select a lunch/drink choice, there is a $5 fee.  Otherwise, the event is FREE and you can bring your own lunch and drink.
