The NASDAQ Educational NASDAQ and Governor Bush Launch Educational Programs With First Serve at NASDAQ-100 Open Initiative Introduces Stock Market Game and Entrepreneurship Education to First Serve Inner-City After-School Effort Miami, FL– The NASDAQ Educational Foundation, Governor Jeb Bush and NASDAQ-100 Open Tournament Chairman Butch Buchholz today announced a pilot program that will introduce inner-city youth to stock market investing and entrepreneurship during the NASDAQ-100 Open, which takes place at the Tennis Center at Crandon Park from March 19 to 30. Working with two of its premier grant recipients—the Securities Industry Foundation for Economic Education (SIFEE) and the National Foundation for Teaching Entrepreneurship (NFTE)—the NASDAQ Educational Foundation will bring "The Stock Market Game" and NFTE "BizTech" programs to First Serve. First Serve is a U.S. Tennis Association initiative designed to provide inner-city children with a safe and nurturing after-school environment that combines academics with tennis. The NASDAQ pilot program will be instituted with First Serve at the Ashe-Buchholz Tennis Center in Moore Park. "NASDAQ and the NASDAQ Educational Foundation strongly believe that the most important currency for our children is knowledge," said Edward Knight, Chief Public Policy Officer and General Counsel of The Nasdaq Stock Market, Inc. "Through First Serve in partnership with NFTE and SIFEE, we have created programs that combine athletics and education during the after school hours to help instill the fundamentals of business and investing in our nation's future leaders." "First Serve is a model program that not only teaches our youth how to play tennis, but also provides them with access to quality after-school programs," said Governor Jeb Bush. "The program is unique because, in addition to tennis lessons, it provides our youth an education in computers, academics and mentoring which are the basic components of the initiative. By teaming up with NASDAQ, the program will teach young minds the value of hard work, and the importance of saving and investing. These are valuable skills that will help our youth achieve success." "We are proud to bring NASDAQ and First Serve together for a special program that will benefit the kids first and foremost," said Butch Buchholz, Chairman of the NASDAQ-100 Open Tournament. "Arthur Ashe and I looked at the Ashe-Buchholz Tennis Center as a way to provide inner-city youth with a safe place to play tennis and learn. The NASDAQ Educational Foundation has enhanced that experience with this initiative." During the tournament, NFTE (pronounced "nifty") will offer First Serve participants a specialized curriculum through an interactive, computer-based learning tool called BizTech, which was originally co-developed by NFTE with Microsoft, a NASDAQ-100 company. BizTech teaches students how to create a business plan and start and operate a business. At the end of the tournament, the young future entrepreneurs will demonstrate what they have learned in a roundtable discussion with the CEOs of several NASDAQ-100 companies. Meanwhile, SIFEE (pronounced "si-fee") will conduct a session of "The Stock Market Game," which introduces student participants to stock market basics by allowing them to buy and sell stocks in hypothetical portfolios. During the two weeks of the NASDAQ-100 Open, students will compete based on the growth of their portfolios. Winners will receive prizes and be honored on court on Saturday, March 29th. Comcast, a NASDAQ-100 company, will provide high-speed Internet access for the computer room at the Ashe-Buchholz Center. In addition, representatives of the Court TV cable network will be on hand to introduce the network's science and social studies web-based curricula, Forensics in the Classroom and Choices and Consequences, which children can experience when visiting the Center. Governor Bush, a major proponent of quality after-school programs and tennis enthusiast, announced the launch of First Serve in Tallahassee, Fla. last February. Joining Governor Bush, Mr. Knight and Mr. Buchholz for today's announcement were Michael J. Caslin, III, CEO and Executive Director of NFTE; Robert H. Strong, Executive Director of SIFEE; Laura Levine, Director of the NASDAQ Educational Foundation; Alan Schwartz, President, USTA; Tom Fetzer, Chief Executive, Community Tennis, USTA; Manny Diaz, Mayor of the City of Miami, Arthur Teele Jr., District Commissioner of the City of Miami; Dick Beahrs, President, Court TV; Tom Autry, Vice President and General Manager of Miami-Dade County & the Keys, COMCAST; and Christopher Clouser, Executive Vice President and Chief Global Marketing Officer/President, Burger King Brands, Inc.

    Game, Set, Math Unit Overview: As students work through the activities in this unit they will be introduced to many important figures within the world of tennis. They will explore, through varied learning experiences and activities, these people’s significance to the game of tennis as they are also afforded the opportunity to practice navigating word problems and the basic math functions of addition and subtraction. The activities that accompany this unit are geared towards students, at the older level, who seek intervention and practice with basic addition and subtraction and at the younger level, students who seek math enrichment opportunities. For all levels this unit will offer practice accessing word problems and beyond math will allow students the circumstance to practice using a variety of “museum” resources to gather information.

  • ESSAY Copyright 2012 by Paul Fein SHOULD TENNIS ABOLISH THE
    ESSAY Copyright 2012 by Paul Fein SHOULD TENNIS ABOLISH THE SERVICE LET? “Truth is the proper and sufficient antagonist to error and has nothing to fear from the conflict, unless by human interposition, disarmed of her natural weapons, free argument and debate.” − Thomas Jefferson “Nothing is more terrible than activity without insight.” – Thomas Carlyle When will they ever learn? Never, it seems. Defying past experience and abundant evidence, the Association of Tennis Professionals Board of Directors recently approved the elimination of service lets on the Challenger Tour for the first three months of 2013. ATP Executive Chairman Brad Drewett said the board believes “a trial at the ATP Challenger level will be a good way to test this initiative in a competitive environment and get feedback from players before deciding if it could be adapted more broadly.” Attempts to eliminate the sensible and necessary service let go way back. In a September 1954 World Tennis column, “The Silliest Rule in Tennis,” C. Alphonso Smith wrote, “In 92 percent of the hundreds of cases observed, the ball continued in its flight without appreciable change in speed or direction, generally merely flicking the net.” Anyone who has ever played or watched tennis knows Smith’s claim is absurd. We see serves hit the top of the net and ricochet unpredictably the vast majority of times. In 1968, the World Championship Tennis (WCT) circuit’s short-lived experiment with abolishing service lets ended because the players objected. A far more famous advocate, Billie Jean King, resumed this fervent but misguided campaign. Tennis’ Joan of Arc, when she pioneered the women’s pro tour in the early 1970s, has long harbored new visions of our sport.

    United States vs. Colombia Davis Cup by BNP Paribas 2010 World Group Play-off Plaza de Toros La Santamaria Bogota, Colombia * September 17-19 For more information, contact: Tim Curry, +1-914-826-6030, [email protected] PREVIEW NOTES – DAY ONE The 2010 Davis Cup by BNP Paribas World Group Play-off between the United States and Colombia will take place from Friday, September 17, to Sunday, September 19, in Bogota, Colombia, at the Plaza de Toros La Santamaria on an outdoor red clay court. The United States is 3-1 in World Group Play-offs since the World Group was instituted in 1981. The country’s last Play-off took place in 2005, when the U.S. defeated Belgium 4-1 in Belgium on a clay court. The U.S.’s only Play-off loss came in 1987, after which it spent one year in the Americas Zone, in 1988. The U.S. has competed in the World Group every year since and holds the longest uninterrupted run in the World Group of any competing nation. Colombia will be competing for a spot in the World Group for the first time in its 43-year history in the competition. The United States and Colombia hold an even 1-1 record in Davis Cup competition. The two nations have not faced each other since 1979, when the U.S. team faced the Colombians in the North & Central America second round at the Cleveland Skating Club in Ohio. The U.S. swept Colombia 5-0 in that tie on an indoor hard court.
