MIAMI, FLA., SEPTEMBER 21, 2026 – The United States Tennis Association (USTA) today announced that it has awarded a $6,600 Tennis Venue Services grant to the Academia de Tenis David Ensignia.
The grant will be used for the addition of live streaming technology supporting eight 78-foot tennis courts at Continental Tennis Center. The academy will install the Save My Play system, the same technology currently used at the USTA National Campus in Orlando, bringing tournament streaming, match analytics, and video-based player development tools to the facility.
The project is in its final planning phase, with installation targeted for completion by mid-October, ahead of the Junior Orange Bowl U.S. Wild Card Series Qualifier at Continental Tennis Center.
Players will be the greatest beneficiaries of the new technology. Once installed, the system will allow them to record and review their matches, share footage with coaches for post-match analysis without additional coaching or filming expenses, revisit lessons as a learning tool, send complete match video to college recruiters without costly production or editing, and track their progress and performance statistics over time.
“Bringing technology to the courts doesn’t just elevate our facility, it transforms the entire player experience,” said David Ensignia.
El programa de subvenciones para instalaciones de tenis de la USTA está diseñado para mejorar las instalaciones existentes y construir otras nuevas, con el fin de brindar mayores oportunidades para jugar al tenis en comunidades de todo el país. Esta importante financiación fue posible gracias a la ampliación del programa de subvenciones en 2025, con el objetivo de satisfacer la creciente demanda de canchas de tenis, dado el continuo aumento de la participación en este deporte a nivel nacional.
Desde 2005, el programa de subvenciones TVS de la USTA ha otorgado más de 1.040 millones de dólares en subvenciones TVS, incluyendo más de 1.440 millones de dólares en 2025, que apoyaron cerca de 300 proyectos que impactaron a más de 2.500 canchas.
“We are committed to supporting the enhancement and construction of tennis facilities in communities across the country,” said Theodore Loehrke, Managing Director, Section Partnerships, USTA. “Investing in the development of tennis facilities nationwide helps support the USTA’s mission of growing tennis to inspire healthier people and communities everywhere.” In order to ensure communities, have access to safe, appealing and functional tennis environments, grant recipients also receive start-to-finish project management assistance from the USTA’s Tennis Venue Services team which provides industry-leading experience in tennis court and facility design, as well as technical assistance, including construction document review and business development insight to ensure the facilities can deliver tennis at a high-level.
