Spenco Medical Corporation is sponsoring the first ever Spenco ITF Championships, an international junior tennis tournament, that will be held May 5-13 at the Waco Regional Tennis & Fitness center. During the week long tournament, more than 200 high ranking teen tennis players from all over the world will compete with hopes of continuing to play competitively at the college level or professionally.

Spenco, which develops and designs footcare products with a specific end use or foot problem in mind, will provide insoles in each player's goodie bag. Spenco footcare products are now displayed and available for sale at the Waco Regional Tennis and Fitness pro shop.

“Spenco's support makes it possible to provide a top notch event and a positive image of Waco, Texas,” says Mike Doty, Managing Director, Waco Regional Tennis & Fitness. “Waco Regional Tennis & Fitness was selected as the 2006 United States Tennis Association's Outstanding Facility Award and Spenco being a leader in the foot care industry makes for a great team in providing a “first class event” in the heart of central Texas.”

“As a Waco based company, we are excited to be the major player in this event and to help bring international attention to our community,” says Cindy Mitchell, Director of Marketing, Spenco Medical Corporation.

Celebrating its 40th anniversary, Spenco Medical Corporation was founded by Dr. Wayman Spence, a renowned foot care specialist.
