COMPETITIVE ADULT PLAY
We offer competitive in-house and traveling leagues to provide members with the opportunity to compete against other players throughout the year. Our teams have won local, regional, and national championship titles.
LEAGUES
With 75+ USTA teams each year, we are home to Northeast Ohio's largest adult league club; we host a sanctioned NTRP tournament in the fall; our adult players from all NTRP levels compete annually in the Cleveland Challenge, which is made up for a field of our club champions.
Play is based on the NTRP, so you play against players of similar ability - from beginner to more advanced players. Teams have the opportunity to advance from local play to USTA league national championship events. Initially, a player without a rating can self-rate from 2.5 to 5.0 levels.
INTERCLUB
Members have the opportunity to participate in non-USTA Interclub Leagues from September to April. Members play in both the Northcoast Interclub League and Akron Interclub League.
START/RE-START PROGRAM
We have a structured program called Start/Re-Start for club members and non-members to either try tennis for the first time or begin playing again after an extended absence. This program offers adults, 18 years and older, the opportunity to learn from our tennis staff and use our facility at a discounted rate. This class is a 4-step process that graduates you to a USTA team.
2021 Winter Session I: January 4 - February 14
