Tennis for All


PEACE with Penny SEASON 3: REBROADCAST Penny S. Tee Interviews Jane Krivine Founder & Executive Director and Lee Wilson, Managing Director, of Tennis for All, August 30, 2022


We spoke with both Jane Krivine Founder & Executive Director and Lee Wilson, Managing Director, of Tennis for All.


Jane Krivine is the daughter of Freddie Krivine, who was known as Israel’s “Mr Tennis”! He was one of the six founder trustees of the Israel Tennis Centers. One of his passions also was to support tennis in the Arab sector by introducing tennis programs into the community.


The Freddie Krivine Initiative strives to capture the imaginations of kids of all backgrounds and skill levels – bringing together a coexistence community of Arab and Jewish kids playing tennis together with the support from Arab and Jewish parents, coaches, players, teachers and volunteers.


We hope you can join us to listen to how another, perhaps unexpected avenue is used to work on Peace between Israeli and Arab youth.


Come hear how this Jewish Tennis Titan who cared about sharing the benefits of tennis with both Arab and Jewish children, established programs evening the playing field with wins beyond the tennis court encouraging children to meet each other and develop social, language, and intercultural skills through tennis.


You can always see the recordings on our website at PennySTee.com under podcasts. Thank you and May You Live in Peace, שלום and سلام.
