Awards
Since 1947 the Club has awarded the William M. Johnston Trophy to male tennis players
who have demonstrated exceptional character, sportsmanship, manners, spirit of cooperation
and contribution to the growth of the game, including rendering assistance to both adult and
junior players. Beginning in 1986, the Sarah Palfrey Danzig Trophy has been awarded to female
tennis players fitting the same criteria.
Sarah Palfrey Danzig and "Little Bill" Johnston gave championship cups won by them to be used for
