The Mbandi Tennis Foundation (MTF) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to making tennis accessible to Kenya's youth who may not otherwise have the resources to participate, ultimately helping them develop valuable skills such as discipline, teamwork, and resilience.

Our Why

The idea first came to us in 2020, having witnessed firsthand how sports can open doors. We shared a hope to make tennis more accessible to young players across Kenya. By 2022, that dream took shape through the first Mbandi Masters Invitational, a tournament created to spotlight emerging talent and build community through sport. Now, in 2025, we are proud to officially launch the Mbandi Tennis Foundation. Turning our vision into a lasting platform that empowers Kenya's youth.

“The Willis Mbandi Masters Invitational 12 & UNDER tournament lived up to its name. The event was well organized from time to the number of matches per player per day. It was an excellent opportunity for players to compete with their mates at a high level while parents got to witness and support the children. Thank you to the sponsor Mr. Mbandi and the organizers for a great tournament.”
