On Thursday, April 16, 2026, at 6:30 PM, New York Junior Tennis & Learning hosted its Annual Gala at the Ziegfeld Ballroom, honoring Arantxa Sánchez Vicario, former World No. 1 in singles and doubles, fourteen-time Grand Slam champion, and Hall of Famer, and Deborah Slaner Larkin for her outstanding leadership in sports equity and her many contributions to NYJTL’s young scholars and athletes.
Our program featured an inspiring lineup, an elegant ambiance, and a celebration of achievements and bright futures of the youth we serve across New York City.
Proceeds from the evening will advance NYJTL’s mission and expand opportunities for young people across the city.
