The reason The Jesters Foundation was started was to support the growth of racquet sports in the United States.
Our donor contributions directly go towards programs and individuals that are meeting that mission – showing passion, leadership, and action that directly facilitate the growth of squash, racquets, and court tennis each year in the United States*.
