Sacramento, CA . . . The California Community College

Penn will provide the ATP Tennis Ball as the official ball to the
CCCAA regional and state tennis championship tournaments for the next

"We're excited about the opportunity to support the CCCAA. We've
been affiliated with the best events and players in the game for years,
so this is a natural fit," said Greg Mason, Senior Director of Sales
for Penn Racquet Sports.
The CCCAA hosts forty-eight (48) women's tennis teams and forty-four

and partners," said COA Executive Director Carlyle Carter. "Penn's high
quality ball and dedication to customer service and the needs of today's
tennis athlete were instrumental in the CCCAA's decision to partner
with this fine company."
