The Elena Baltacha Foundation was established in 2014 to support the work that former British Tennis No. 1 Elena Baltacha had begun before she sadly passed away. The Foundation has ensured that the support from the professional tennis world and the general public has been focussed in the right way, and all donations raised from subsequent fundraising initiatives have been put to good use. The Foundation has also provided financial support to EBAT, the Elena Baltacha Academy of Tennis, which was set up in 2012.
Elena Baltacha set up her Academy with one goal – to give more children, from all backgrounds, the opportunity to learn to play tennis.
