The resolution recognizes May 2025 as National Tennis Month in Vermont, coinciding with the 144th anniversary of the United States Tennis Association (USTA), which was established on May 21, 1881. The USTA, now comprising over 500,000 members, promotes tennis at all levels and organizes the annual U.S. Open, the nation's premier tennis tournament. The resolution highlights the USTA's commitment to inclusivity in the sport through initiatives like the Adaptive Tennis Grant Program, which supports participation across various demographics.

The resolution is a collaborative effort from multiple representatives and a senator, emphasizing the importance of tennis in promoting physical activity and community engagement. It cites a survey indicating that approximately 25.7 million Americans played tennis in 2024, underscoring the sport's popularity. By designating May 2025 as National Tennis Month, the Vermont General Assembly aims to celebrate and promote tennis throughout the state, and it directs the Secretary of State to send a copy of the resolution to USTA New England.
