Menlo-Atherton High grads (Class of 2012) Jesse and Christian Perkins Twins have announced that they’ve teamed with the Edsa Shangri-La, Manila resort to form the Perkins Twins Tennis Academy (PTTA).

Located in Ortigas, Philippines at the Edsa Shangri-La, Manila, the PTTA is an international tennis development organization that caters to all levels and ages of tennis and is the first such international tennis academy in the Philippines.

“The Perkins Twins Tennis Academy is more than a tennis training academy,” Jesse said. “At the PTTA, we want our junior campers to grow intellectually and physically to better cope with the demands of a younger generation; to prepare them to become the future athletes and leaders of the Philippines.”

Added Christian: “The Perkins Twins Tennis Academy fulfills a goal of the Perkins family to give something back to the Philippines . . . The PTTA will bring awareness to the sport of tennis.”
