Uses
Our Main Goal
Second bounces hopes to uplift underprivileged youth tennis programs by donating slightly used tennis balls. We partner with local clubs and organizations to source usable tennis balls. Some of those "lightly used" tennis balls still have enough bounce to be played again. Our tennis balls go through testing to determine which tennis balls are still playable and which tennis balls can be upcycled through our other channels.
Walkers
Tennis balls can be used as slides on walkers
Allows walkers to slide rather than having to be lifted

Dog Balls
Tennis balls are a safe option for dogs
