Aug. 15, 2010 - PRLog -- Rancho Santa Fe, CA----Eduardo I. Sanchez, Head Tennis Professional at Rancho Valencia, an Auberge Resort, is organizing the 6th Annual SES Pro-Am Fundraising Tennis Tournament to be held on Saturday, September 11, 2010, at the resort located at 5921 Valencia Circle, Rancho Santa Fe, California.  Proceeds will provide the children of Tecate, Mexico, with access to free tennis lessons, tennis equipment and academic scholarships and support the efforts of the Empty Cradle, a San Diego non-profit organization that helps parents cope with the loss of an infant before, during or after birth.  There are currently 500 children enrolled in free tennis lessons at the SES Tennis Center, which has grown to include four regulation-size tennis courts.  Primary sponsors of the Pro-Am as of this printing include:  Rancho Valencia; Geyser Holdings, Jamie and Tony Carr; San Diego Self Storage; Coffee Ambassador; the Plastic Surgery Practice of Smoot, Smoot, Sadrian and Hollan; Jet Methods and Union Bank of California Priority Banking.

Sanchez, who was born and raised in the city of Tecate, accomplished a life-long dream to construct public tennis courts for use by all the citizens of Tecate, regardless of their ability to pay for lessons.  He dedicated the project on June 4, 2004, in honor of his deceased son, Sean Eduardo.  For further information regarding the SES Tennis Center, or to purchase tickets to attend the events, please call (858) 832-8297 or email sesproam@gmail.com.  Details on the additional beneficiary, Empty Cradle, may be located at www.emptycradle.org.
