Wilson has also pledged to contribute 2.5 percent of all purchases made by USPTA professional-level members to their individual USPTA Retirement Gold+ accounts.

“Wilson and the USPTA are a perfect match on so many levels, and we are excited to rejoin forces with the best teaching professionals in the industry,” said Hans-Martin Reh, General Manager of Wilson Racquet Sports. “As a brand, our mission is to become the undisputed champion in tennis. To realize that vision, we recognize a renewed focus on grassroots tennis and deeper partnership with teaching professionals are essential.”

“I was fortunate to be a part of the Wilson team 20-plus years ago when USPTA and Wilson were partners,” said John Embree, USPTA CEO. “I feel like the USPTA has returned home. I am excited about what this endorsement will mean to our membership and to the tennis industry as a whole.”

The relationship will officially launch at the USPTA World Conference, which takes place September 25-29, at Indian Wells, California.
