It was the perfect day for Florida tennis players! Wellington Tennis Center hosted the Casey Cares Love-All Tennis Tournament as a sold-out crowd of over 100 participants rallied on the courts to play tennis in support of the Casey Cares Foundation. With friendly competition, giveaways, prizes, and a shared commitment to making a difference in the lives of critically ill children, it was truly a perfect day on the court.

A heartfelt appreciation goes to event co-chair and Casey Cares Board member, Kristina Bostwick for organizing the tournament. Proceeds from the event will benefit our programs that provide enjoyable activities to critically ill children and their families. We serve over 195 critically ill children and their families in Florida alone, helping to make a significant impact on their lives.

Unfortunately, Ryder, an 8-year-old Casey Cares child diagnosed with Short Bowel Syndrome, and his family were unable to attend as planned due to a medical emergency (thankfully, Ryder is doing okay!). Casey Baynes read the speech they prepared which read, in part, "Thanks to the Casey Cares Foundation, we are able to give [Ryder] a childhood and experiences that we will never forget. he finally knows what it feels like to be part of a loving family and to just be a kid. We are beyond grateful to be a part of something so incredible. Thank you all for your support."

Congrats to the winners of our matches:
