My love of platform tennis led me to start this company. It’s also why Viking is so active in developing and promoting this wonderful sport. Platform tennis has come a long way in recent years. Technology has improved equipment quality and performance. Players are in better shape, and increasingly more competitive. At Viking, we’re proud of the role we’ve played in this progress...but there’s still more we can do.

That’s why I’m very proud of our sponsorship efforts with the Viking junior tour and APTA National Junior Championships. If our great sport is to continue to prosper and grow, it’s essential we provide appropriate forums for the up-and-coming players who represent its future. I’m equally excited about our efforts to help launch the Professional Platform Tennis Association (PPTA), an organization dedicated to creating a body of professional platform tennis instructors to reinforce high standards of play, and pass them on to each generation.

I hope you too will share in my enthusiasm. David C. Kjeldsen, CEO
