The Emory University Women's Tennis took some time away from their training this past Friday night as members of the team volunteered with Volley Against Violence (VAV) in Atlanta.

VAV is a Community/Police Engagement initiative designed to utilize tennis to bring youth and police officers together for physical activity, informal mentoring, relationship building, and the seamless delivery of life-skills curriculum.

"Friday night was a great opportunity to engage in an impactful community program," said Head Coach Amy Bryant. "Volley Against Violence allowed our student-athletes to connect with children from lower income at-risk families through tennis. It was a tremendous experience for everyone involved!"
