Snapshot of ICTA in Action!

Mission: To spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ worldwide through the sport of tennis.

Vision: Gather an international body of Christ followers to impact and disciple nations for the Kingdom.

International Christian Tennis Association utilizes three main ministry programs:

• ICTA Large Scale Outreaches to Famous Professional Tennis Tournaments

Founded in 1999 and incorporated as a non-profit 501c3 organization in 2004, International Christian Tennis Association membership has grown to include people in over 1800 cities in 65 countries.

International Christian Tennis Association is the first organization in history to host large-scale mission trips to famous tennis events. ICTA Outreach has offered free Christian resources to over 1,000,000 tennis fans.

Funding for International Christian Tennis Association and ICTA Outreach comes from ICTA Academy, a year-round world class, high performance tennis and missionary training program. Students from 15 countries and 14 US states have attended.

ICTA Academy is a discipleship ministry. Though students are rigorously trained at the highest levels in preparation for the professional tour or a collegiate team, Christian missions, leadership, theology, and apologetics are focused upon within a team atmosphere of accountability. Pro tennis teams are formed from this program and sent worldwide in support of the Great Commission as written in Mathew 28.
