ALL ACCESS FOR EVERYONE

ALL ACCESS FOR EVERYONE ✦
First of its kind.
We had the amazing opportunity to partner with Orphan to Heir to bring pickleball for the first time to the country of Eswatini in Mpolonjeni. With around 30 youth from surrounding communities, we ran a week long training with a singles and doubles tournament. The event’s success not only grabbed the attention of the local officials, but the sports director of the king! Our ultimate goal is to raise the funds to build the first ever set of pickleball courts to identify and train local coaches/players to continue to grow the sport and develop players.
We opened the first set of pickleball courts in September 2025.
Just a little fun
we are having.
Community events teaching pickleball and tennis!
who are we?
All Access Tennis is a Registered 501(c)3 Nonprofit Organization
We are a 501c3 non-profit organization passionate about bringing the sports of tennis and pickleball to ALL who are interested in learning. Tennis has a reputation for being mainly for the wealthy, and we want to play a part to change that! We do prioritize the ages of 3-17 to hopefully inspire youth to embrace a sport they can play throughout their lives that benefits their physical and mental health. Beyond having access to free programs, children from lower income families are eligible to receive partial or full program scholarships. Currently, All Access serves the Crestview, FL community. Crestview is a city with a rapidly growing tennis population and currently has three youth tennis teams: Davidson Middle, Shoal River Middle, and Crestview High. It’s not just tennis we love, but pickleball as well! Pickleball is currently the fastest growing sport in America with courts popping up everywhere. We want to introduce kids to sports that can carry them as far as they want to go. The opportunities can range from getting physical exercise, making a school team, traveling and playing tournaments, to potentially getting scholarships for college tennis. Our goal is that everyone who wants the opportunity to play tennis and pickleball has ACCESS!
“Our idea is to use tennis as a way to gain and hold the attention of young people so that we can teach them about matters more important than tennis.”
-Arthur Ashe
Our Team
TC Cooley
TC Cooley is an RSPTA certified tennis instructor who has been playing tennis for over 20 years. He also picked up pickleball about 3 years ago. TC has been married to his wife, who is a college English instructor, who also plays tennis and pickleball, for 21 years. He has three sons: Tristan, 18, Lliam, 16, and Declan 7. TC has been in ministry for over 20 years in various capacities: youth pastor, kids pastor, worship leader, small groups pastor, associates pastor/connections pastor. TC also has a tennis academy called TopCat Tennis that he formed after moving to Crestview, FL after realizing there was not much of a tennis community in this area. He has been a volunteer tennis coach at Crestview High School and Davidson Middle School for most of the years he has lived in Florida, which is now 9 years. Coming from a lower income family, TC has seen first-hand how tennis and pickleball are geared more towards wealthy families and communities. His heart continued to grow to expand access to anyone who wanted to learn these sports. This birthed the idea for a non-profit where he could offer lessons, equipment, and events for much less than what would cost people at traditional tennis clubs, tournaments, etc. He hopes to connect to people through sports and to ultimately lead them to Jesus if they do not already have a personal relationship with Him. So far, All Access has made impacts locally and across the ocean in Eswatini, Africa, and we suspect it is only the beginning.

Troy Sears
Father of 4 grown children, 1 girl & 3 boys. Married for 20yrs to my better half Kim. Started playing Pickleball in April 2023. The first time I ever attempted it TC and Tristan were out there trying to explain to us exactly how this game works. Kinda like they did with tennis back in 2020. So basically both of these racket sports had been formally introduced to me by TC and Tristan. I had always admired tennis and I would even watch from time to time without ever having played myself or even understanding the game, especially the scoring.
Since we met the Cooley family we’ve had nothing but positive things and time spent together as we watched our children growing up and playing tennis together. Out of that game, some really good friendships with just an amazing family.
Fast forward some years and we’re all attending the same church, hosting small Pickleball tournaments together and even TC and I being partners for several tournaments now. With me being as competitive as I am, especially in the means of anything athletic, I want to be the best that I can at things especially when I am just addicted and in love with the game of Pickleball. I could literally play every day and never get tired of it. It’s been such a great outlet for friendships and fellowship amongst people of all different ages in backgrounds and we have gained so many more friends just from this sport alone. Having TC and Tristan around has been an absolute bonus for me personally because I know how much knowledge they both have in these sports so it challenges me to work harder and better myself. Also, even more importantly, having TC as a friend has challenged me to be a better person inside and out to myself and others and to try and reflect an image more like Jesus . The way I have seen how TC and Brie lead their family as they walk with Jesus is nothing but inspiring to me. I know I’m a lot more rough around the edges & I feel like I question why too much, I do feel like my walk with God has been turned in a better direction & whether or not they knew it, they get some credit for that, as well as my beautiful wife Kim of course.
A long way to say I’m grateful to be a part of All Access so that I can help in whatever way possible to spread some love of this sport & Jesus wherever we go together!
