Freedoms hosted the World Team Tennis KidCaster program presented
by Advanta and Comcast SportsNet at the Arthur Ashe Youth Tennis
Center. Luke Jensen, 1993 French Open doubles champion, ESPN

Comcast SportsNet were on hand to host the WTT KidCaster Auditions.
The aspiring broadcasters on hand also had the opportunity to participate
in a tennis clinic run by Jensen.
Participants were provided
a 20-second audition script and were asked to read it in front of
a panel of judges. A number of the kids brought their own
unique style and personality to the auditions. None more than
Jonathon Singleton who won two Phillies tickets for his humorous
take on the script. Age division winners were Sarah
