AMHERST, N.Y. — Daemen head men's and women's tennis coach Richard Greco has announced that his program will once again host the  Daemen Tennis Carnival on Saturday, January 24, at Miller Tennis Center, the indoor home of Daemen's men's and women's tennis teams, at 5959 Sheridan Drive in Williamsville.

The event aims to bring the local tennis community together for a fun night of games, drills, food, and a chance to win prizes. 

Tennis activities at the event will run from 7 to 9 p.m. The event is catered with food and refreshments being served throughout the night. Registration will be held at the event and begins at 6 p.m. 

There are two types of tickets available for the event.  A $30 ticket includes entry to the event along with food and refreshments. A $45 ticket includes entry to the event + clinic, food, refreshments, and one basket raffle sheet.

All proceeds will go directly to the tennis programs at Daemen and will be used to help offset the ever-present need for athletic scholarships, travel expenses, and court costs.

Those who are unable to attend the event itself can still purchase basket raffle tickets beforehand; baskets and raffle items. The Basket Raffle will be held in the Alumni Lounge on  Wednesday, January 21st, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m.  The cost is $5.00 per sheet and/or $20.00 per 5 sheets. Please stop by to purchase tickets for some wonderful baskets provided by our community partners.
