Tennis, Anyone? Ocean Tennis Association Offers Summer Programs

The Ocean Tennis Association has adult men's and women's tennis leagues forming in the Shore area.

The organization is dedicated to the USTA's mission "to promote and develop the growth of tennis" throughout our area. We have donated nets for the Bey Lea tennis courts in Toms River and for the tennis courts at Ocean County Park in Lakewood. We supply rollers when needed to the high schools in Toms River, and work closely with the high school coaches on fulfilling any needs their programs may have. We make annual monetary donations to the Toms River Recreation Department in support of tennis growth.

The summer tennis league for adults and juniors runs from Memorial Day through early September.

The association provides an opportunity for tennis players to play tennis at their convenience, at locations they normally play and against people at their skill level. Open to everyone, the emphasis is on providing beginner, intermediate and advanced players an enjoyable experience.

The cost is $15 per year; for $25 a player can play singles, doubles and mixed doubles.
