Delray Beach—For the past 12 years, the Delray Beach International Tennis Championships (ITC) has seen many stars come through its pearly, white gates at the Delray Beach Stadium and Tennis Center. In 2010, the event is going to amp it up even more, hosting the world's first nine-day 'Super Event' featured tennis champions past and present—exploding into a combined professional men's ATP World Tour and ATP Champions Tour event, and running simultaneously over the course of February 20-28, 2010.
And yet, even tennis’ most-revered legends could not charmingly court the ITC grounds like its charismatic promotional team—the VolleyGirls. The ITC’s VolleyGirls are the ambassadors and spokespersons of the event—the iconic figurines of the ITC both on-site at the tournament's sponsors' private parties, PR engagements with players on-air in TV and radio, as well as appearances in the Delray Beach community and Palm Beach County. The VolleyGirls must be at least 21 years of age, sporty, electric, engaging and charming. The
‘Girls’ colorfully diverse backgrounds appropriately adorn the International Tennis Championships, as some past and current ‘Girls’ hail from Colombia, Brazil, Morocco, Germany, Romania, Yugoslavia, and are home to South Florida’s playgrounds in Palm Beach, Broward and Miami-Dade counties.
“When we started the VolleyGirl campaign in 2007, we thought it would be popular, but never realized the extent to which these girls became the iconic figures of the event they did,” said John Butler, Executive Director of the Delray Beach ITC. “Now they’ve received national recognition, endorsement deals with incredible fashion boutiques and make-up lines…It’s all just exploded in such a fantastic way. They’ve become an ideal representation of the event.”
As one of 12 ATP tournaments in North America and one of 63 ATP tournaments in the world, the VolleyGirls are part of a unique and exclusive team promoting something much greater than a nine day event. Rather, the 'Girls' are the iconic faces and advocates of a beautiful image, and are both the artiste and the silhouette of an extraordinary idea.
When choosing a team, we look for: simply positive, energetic, personable representatives of the tournament…faces of the community and iconic components to the sport itself. Interviews with the prospective 2010 VolleyGirls are a month long, and begin NOVEMBER.
