  • PHIT America Founder Selected to Tennis Industry Hall of Fame
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: MEDIA CONTACT: Mike May PHIT America 561.317.6111 [email protected] www.phitamerica.org PHIT America Founder Selected to Tennis Industry Hall of Fame Jim Baugh To Be Recognized for Long, Impressive Career with Prestigious Honor SILVER SPRING, MD – July 29, 2014 -- PHIT America, the non-profit education and advocacy organization designed to combat the nation’s inactivity and obesity crisis, proudly announces that its Founder and CEO Jim Baugh will become the ninth inductee into the Tennis Industry Hall of Fame. Baugh joins tennis legends Billie Jean King and Nick Bollettieri to receive this prestigious honor. He will be recognized during the Tennis Industry Association (TIA) Forum and Show on August 24. Plaques of Tennis Industry Hall of Fame inductees are on permanent display at the International Tennis Hall of Fame in Newport, Rhode Island. A resident of Jupiter, Florida, Baugh’s career in tennis began nearly four decades ago when he became an area sales representative for Converse. Since then, he has progressed to be one of the most recognized leaders in the industry. Throughout his illustrious career, Baugh has taken pride in a commitment to growing the game. When tennis saw participation numbers dwindle in the late 1990s, Baugh – then head of the TIA – launched several new programs to recruit players to tennis. In just over a decade, the sport grew participation by 36 percent. As President of Wilson Sporting Goods, Baugh helped increase the company’s market share from 14 to 52 percent. He was inducted into the Sporting Goods Industry Hall of Fame in 2011.
