Rafael Nadal, Ana Ivanovic, Stefan Edberg, Martina Navratilova and Daniela Hantuchova will be joined by current and past ATP/WTA players along with Sir Richard Branson in the 2nd annual Necker Cup Pro-am on Necker Island in the British Virgin Islands November 12-16.

 

Branson is excited to host the event again. “Last year’s first Necker Cup was a huge success & incredible fun for everyone involved. It’s an honor to have Necker Island host this unique tennis experience again this year and I’m very much looking forward to seeing everybody again and some new faces too.”

 

Amateurs can win a trip to compete in the Necker Cup Pro-Am by participating in the Corporate Challenge to be held October 4-6, 2013 at The New York Athletic Club in New York City.

 

Beside the tennis, Necker Cup Pro-Am guests will enjoy cocktail and dinner parties and also get the chance to meet with the players and Branson. The final day concludes with a charity exhibition match, dinner, auction and “End of the World” party in the main room of Necker Island’s Great House. 2013 Necker Cup guests will be some of the first to ever see Necker Island’s newly rebuilt “Great House.”

 

Last year’s Necker Cup raised over $1,000,000 for worthy causes.

 

Amateurs can book a 4 night/5 day all-inclusive team package to the world’s most exclusive tennis Pro-Am by calling 800.376.0975 or visiting http://www.neckercup.com.

 

Premier Tennis Travel organizes the event.
