Summer Camp Forms
The USTA Social Spring Tennis League for Adults
The USTA Social Spring Tennis League for Adults
The USTA Social Tennis League offers the opportunity for adults throughout New England to meet new people through the game of tennis. This league is a great way to improve your skills or get back into tennis in a fun, social environment. All skill levels are welcome as long as you're ready for match play (i.e., you can serve, rally and know the rules). Please note this league is NOT for beginners.
The first week of each season is a fun hit around to get some practice in and meet the other players. Everyone will then be assigned to co-ed teams, and the following weeks will be doubles matches where players are assigned a 1hr match. The final week concludes with playoffs where the winning team is awarded prizes!
Each player who registers for the USTA Social Tennis League must fill out the team placement form at least 48 hours before the start of the league. This form helps us to place you on a team based on your playing level, availability and teammate requests.
We are currently in search of a site coordinator for this league. The site coordinator gets to play in the league for free (and receives a special swag item!) in exchange for handing out balls at the start of each night (provided by USTA) and recording match scores. Please email socialtennis@newengland.usta.com if you're interested in coordinating!
