After devastating fires swept through Altadena, Malibu, and the Pacific Palisades, two USTA SoCal Adult League teams—Malibu’s “Loosely Strung” and Altadena’s “Band of Brothers”—overcame adversity to compete at Sectionals. Despite losing their home courts and experiencing personal losses, both teams decided to press forward, using tennis as a source of resilience and connection. Their participation in Sectionals was not just about competition but a testament to their determination, camaraderie, and the strength of their communities in the face of hardship. 🔗Use the link in our bio to read their full story.
