ABOUT:                        

USTA

League 



Registrations for adult tennis leagues are now taking place for those looking to

enjoy the thrill of competition while making friends in the process. Health benefits

of tennis include increased burning of calories, reduction in blood pressure and

reduced stress. These benefits play a role in reducing a person’s risk of heart

disease, the number one life-threatening disease among men and women. USTA Leagues

offer several programs throughout the year that vary by gender, age, and

skill level. Formats also vary by offering singles, doubles, and mixed doubles.

Teams and leagues are set up by skill level which means matches will be

fun and competitive.

JTT



Established in 1991, USTA Jr. Team Tennis provides youth

with all of the health and social benefits of tennis in a fun and

competitive team environment.  It promotes social skills and important values

by fostering a spirit of cooperation and unity, as well as individual self-growth.

USTA Jr. Team Tennis is also a fun environment for kids to learn that succeeding is really more about how they play the game – win or lose.
