Legacy of supporting Israel Tennis Centers continues in generations


LIBERTY — From generation to generation, l’dor v’dor in Hebrew reflects the importance of tradition in Jewish culture.

For Amy Hendricks and others of her generation, it means carrying on a legacy being passed from their parents. A national board member in the United States for the Israel Tennis Centers, she said she and others in the Valley saw an example set by their parents and are following it.

A team of players and coaches from the Israel Tennis Centers visited the Mahoning Valley earlier today to present an invitation-only tennis exhibition at Youngstown Country Club, 1402 Country Club Drive. The event served as a fundraiser for the centers.

Children on the team represent diverse backgrounds included Loui, a 10-year-old Arab child.

They gave personal accounts of how being involved in the tennis center has positively affected their lives.
