About Racket Tap
Our Mission
Racket Tap is an initiative to raise a racket against mental health stigma at all levels of racket sports. Our motto is: ‘Extend a hand. Be kind. Check in.’
Our History
This initiative was founded as an Instagram page @rackettap by a youth tennis player who observed that along with the benefits that come with playing, unfortunately there is also a mental health toll that competition, familial pressure, and self doubt can take on your identity and well-being. We aim to reduce the hesitation surrounding mental health that players, families, and coaches may face regardless of their involvement in these sports.
Our Hope
We hope to increase dialogue on this topic in a safe and nurturing environment to eventually normalize this conversation in the world of racket sports.
Support the @rackettap mission to end mental health stigma!
Your participation in our t-shirt fundraiser can make a difference in the lives of those we serve. Proceeds will be donated to Active Minds, the nation’s premier nonprofit organization supporting mental health awareness and education for young adults.
