The Atlantic Tire Championships return to Cary Tennis Park September 11-18! This USTA Pro Circuit event features the next rising stars of tennis. Many of these players will be coming to Cary directly from the courts of the US Open and will go on to compete at other ATP Tour Events. Past players include Ryan Harrison, Frances Tiafoe, Reilly Opelka, Mackenzie McDonald, and Jack Sock.
The tournament is currently recruiting ballpersons. Ballpersons play a very important role in the overall operation of each match. Their primary job is to retrieve balls when they are out of play.
*Snacks and drinks will be provided for all volunteers. If you sign up for two or more shifts a day, we will provide a meal.
**Friday, Saturday, and Sunday (Sept. 16-18) shifts are not guranteed. For these shifts, we select ballpersons based on who has helped earlier in the week.
Ballpersons must:
- Know how to keep score, move quickly, endure long matches in the sun, and work well with others.
- Be mature, have good hand-eye coordination, and possess good citizenship.
- Be 11 years old by September 11, 2022 (proof of age may be required) in order to participate.
- Ballpersons will need to attended a 1 hour training. Training dates/times will be emailed by September 1.
