“Tennis Against Breast Cancer, Inc. (TABC) Challenges Breast Cancer at Center Court”

By Anonymous

          NEW YORK, NEW YORK (October 13, 2003) – TABC President Maureen Rankine has planned an afternoon of adrenaline rushing activities such as a tennis round robin, a Pro/Celebrity challenge, and a silent auction. Last year, ESPN tennis analyst Patrick McEnroe, former New York City Mayor David Dinkins, former WTA player Leslie Allen, actor Jordi Vilasuso (Guiding Light), actress Fiona Hutchinson (One Life to Live), and actor Jack Mulcahy joined Rankine to support the cause.

    The challenge will take place from 1pm to 5pm at the Roosevelt Island Racquet Club located at 281 Main Street in Roosevelt Island, NY (next to the 59th Street tram). Fees for the Challenge are $100 for players and $50 for spectators. TABC is also selling raffle tickets ($25 for two tickets) with a chance to win a grand prize 4-day Tennis Fantasy Getaway trip to the Half Moon Bay Tennis, Beach & Golf Resort Montego Bay, Jamaica.

    Rankine, a tennis pro, founded TABC in 1996 after noticing the dynamic impact that playing tennis made on her students who are breast cancer survivors and their families. Thriving off her competitive nature, Rankine decided to make a difference by incorporating emotional and physical wellness into the lives of breast cancer survivors.

    Proceeds from the Tennis Challenge will go toward the TABC Research Fund which supports organizations committed to finding a cure. Since its inception, TABC has donated funds to organizations such as Strang-Cornell Breast Center, New York Presbyterian Hospital, SHARE (Self-help Organization for Women with Breast or Ovarian Cancer), and the Carol M. Baldwin Research Fund.

    TABC will head to Montego Bay, Jamaica for its 2nd Annual Jamaica Tennis Fantasy Getaway December 8-15, 2003 at the exclusive Half Moon Bay Tennis, Beach & Golf Resort.
