LOS ANGELES - Californer -- Conga Sports, a California-based company, is revolutionizing the way we approach tennis, making it more accessible and engaging for players of all abilities. But more than that, Conga Sports is focusing on individuals, the community and even the planet.

Set to launch the highly anticipated 3rd City Slams tournament on June 8, 2024, Conga Sports will bring together teams from all around the LA area, each representing their community, for a unique blend of athleticism and entertainment. The City Slams tournament is designed to captivate both players and spectators and bring new life to the tennis scene.

"We have created a series of entertaining tennis tournaments for all players like you and me," explains Rich Neher, Conga Sports founder and CEO.

What sets Conga Sports apart is its commitment to fostering a sense of community and inclusivity. The tournament provides an opportunity for individuals to connect with like-minded tennis enthusiasts while enjoying a thrilling display of talent on the court and City Slams is just the beginning. Conga Sports has ambitious plans to expand its innovative approach to tennis nationwide, with state, regional, and national championships on the horizon.

Conga Sports is dedicated to making a positive impact beyond the tennis court as well. By partnering with One Tree Planted, they are taking proactive steps to mitigate the environmental impact of tennis by planting trees for every can of tennis balls used in their programs and aim to plant 1 million trees by 2030. Furthermore, as millions of tennis balls end up in landfills around the world every year, Conga Sports has also signed up with RecycleBalls to ensure their programs do not add to the mounting waste and are instead collected and repurposed.
