Conan O’Brien Visits With USTA Wheelchair Tennis Campers
Late-night talk show host Conan O’Brien recently visited with youth athletes and coaches who last week participated in the 2013 USTA-ITF International Junior Wheelchair Tennis Camp in Mission Viejo, Calif.
The kids visited with O’Brien on the Warner Brothers lot and later enjoyed the day at Universal Studios located in Studio City, Calif. The camp was for players ages 12-18 who live with a permanent disabling condition and use a wheelchair when playing sports including tennis.
This year’s camp included players from 10 different states and six different countries (Argentina, Canada, Chile, Guatemala, Mexico, and the United States). The camp is geared towards fun and camaraderie, while developing tennis skills in these young athletes.
