Delray Beach Tennis Center
Past Special Events

The Delray Beach Tennis Center will be hosting the 2007 Chris Evert / Raymond James Tennis Classic on November 2-4. Last year the event raised a record-breaking $1.4 million dollars. Since 1989, Chris Evert's efforts have contributed over $15.4 million dollars in an ongoing campaign against drug abuse and child neglect in Florida. With the help of loyal and generous sponsors, participating celebrities, legions of volunteers and a dedicated staff, Chris Evert continues to raise money to fund programs that ensure a bright future for at-risk children and their families.
The multi-day event features two days of Pro-Celebrity Tennis, the Classic Cocktail Party at the Boca Raton Resort & Club, Tennis with Chrissie and Friends at the Pro-Am and the Pro-Celebrity Gala, an elegant, first-class evening of entertainment, dining and dancing. Dont forget about the exciting live auction at the Gala with exceptional, one-of-kind items that you will have to see to believe!

swagger were shaped by competing in these fiercely tough
events.

the sister company of the International Tennis Championships
in Delray Beach (ATP Tour event), is hosting this highest-level
national junior tennis tournament in the country for the
third consecutive year in Delray Beach and Boca Raton.

256 boys and girls in the nation in the 12 & under
age division. Competitors will gather in Palm Beach County

the most sought after trophy in US national junior tennis.
"The Gold Ball is everything if you're a junior",
says Ivan Baron, Tournament Chairman and multiple winner
of the coveted Gold Ball during his storied days as a
top American junior, including the No. 1 world ranking.
"I won quite a few national and international tournaments
while playing in the juniors and as a pro, so I have several
trophies that I packed and stored away. But the Gold Balls,
those I keep out for everyone to see."
Admission is FREE throughout the week.
The general public and media are invited to watch and
cheer these stars of tomorrow. See them now, as next time…you'll
