To commemorate its 50th Anniversary, NJTL of Trenton has partnered with New York City filmmaker Sean Welski to produce a series of three mini-documentaries capturing the organization’s enduring impact on the lives of young people across the Trenton and Mercer County community. The short films—each three minutes or less—offer a cinematic look at the nonprofit’s remarkable journey: past, present, and future. Through authentic storytelling and compelling visuals, the series celebrates five decades of tennis, education, and character development that have shaped generations of youth since the organization’s founding in 1975. Each mini-documentary explores a different chapter of NJTL of Trenton’s story:
