charity sponsored tennis event ideas needed??

[ark_28]

Hi Guys

So my other half is sponsoring two orhpans in Asia who are having surgery we are trying to raise as much money as possible, I have never done a sponsored run before but thought it would be fun to do something sponsored that is tennis related given it is the sport I am most passionate about, but I am really not sure what I can do for sponsorship to raise money for this cause in tennis?

Any suggestions guys and I would be very grateful/

- Pro-am doubles tournament or social. The hard part is finding enough local teaching pros or former local stars to volunteer their time, unless you have a lot of connections to the tennis pro community you'll probably have to sell this idea to the head pro at your club and get them to do the legwork for you.

- 1 hour 'free' clinic with minimum donation. Can set this up on separate occasions using different pros, or do a shot-of-the-day type thing.

- 50/50 tournament. Half of the pool of money goes towards the charity, the rest is divided up as prize money for 1st, 2nd, 3rd place (since it's a charity event it's usually not too hard to convince the winners to donate their prize money)

- Woodies & whites social.
