SATA's Second Serve Cookbook
Two years ago, SATA published its first cookbook of player-submitted recipes entitled Serve It Up. This cookbook was an immediate success and raised funds for the junior youth program here in Sacramento. The cookbook sold out quickly and SATA received numerous requests for a second printing! Second Serve is SATA's second cookbook based on newly submitted recipes from its players. However, in addition to these interclub recipes, we reached outside SATA for some favorite recipes. Second Serve contains recipes from Andy Roddick, Venus Williams, and Martina Navratilova (to name a few) as well as from tennis clubs in Sacramento's sister cities on several continents! To reserve a copy of this cookbook - 100 recipes for only $15.00 - please send an email to
