NIGHTLIGHT: Andy Roddick and John McEnroe Thrilled Crowd on Randall’s Island Last Night and Helped Make Randall’s Island Sports Foundation’s Night of Tennis & Cocktails for Young Professionals a Success

The Young Professionals Council of Randall’s Island Sports Foundation, Inc. held a Night of Tennis & Cocktails on Wednesday, July 14, 2010.  The event, which drew over 160 guests, featured a World TeamTennis match between the NY Sportimes staring John McEnroe and the Philadelphia Freedoms staring Andy Roddick.  The NY Sportimes were victorious.  On top of experiencing great tennis in a intimate stadium, those who attended were also treated to an open bar with specialty Belvedere Vodka cocktails, a light gourmet dinner and Belvedere gift bags.  On a special note, Council members Brielle Caruso and Christine Maselbas got the privilege of kicking-off the match by returning Roddick and McEnroe’s “first serve” of the evening on center court before over 1,500 tennis fans.

The Young Professionals Council next event will be a 5K Run on Randall’s Island on Saturday, October 23.  To learn more about Randall’s Island Sports Foundation visit randallsisland.org.
