Rick and Cate Kerpsack founded StringPing.net in 2020 with a mission to energize the tennis industry during the social distancing era. Their extensive experience of over 40 years in tennis, spanning manufacturing and retail both online and offline, has equipped them with the tools and expertise to harness the power of messaging technology. While this technology has been embraced by numerous industries, it has remained overlooked by the tennis profession—until now. Rick and Cate aim to empower tennis industry professionals, tennis shops, and clubs to utilize technology effectively, ensuring seamless communication with their players and members. By doing so, they strive to help you forge a future that is impervious to economic fluctuations and participation downturns.

In September 2021, StringPing was thrilled to announce it garnered the endorsement of the United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) becoming the "Official Texting and Messaging Service of the USPTA."

Today, StringPing is making waves across borders, with clubs and shops in the United States, Canada, and Australia embracing its innovative solutions. We are proud to be facilitating stronger connections within the global tennis community through our user friendly platform.
