About us
A love of the game, shared.
Match Point Foundation is a registered nonprofit using racquet sports as a platform to build community and promote accessible recreation.
Who are we?
Players with a purpose.
We are a youth-led registered nonprofit that runs open-play sessions, tournaments and fundraisers across racquet sports — tennis, pickleball and more — to bring people together and promote accessible recreation.
So far we've raised more than $4,500, welcomed over 250 players, and grown to chapters on four continents. Every dollar of proceeds goes to local animal shelters.
Our origin
It started on local courts.
What began as open-play afternoons on local courts in Northern Virginia quickly became something bigger: a community where anyone — first-timer or seasoned player — could pick up a racquet and belong.
As the community grew, so did the mission. We realized every rally, tournament and bake sale could do good beyond the court, so we committed 100% of our proceeds to local animal shelters. Today, chapters in India, China, Brazil, Singapore, Texas and California carry that same spirit.
