Community Tennis Associations

Fueled By Volunteers

Community Tennis Associations are created to promote and develop the game of tennis in a community. Fueled by volunteers, this group coordinates and maintains tennis programs and services in a community that is open and accessible to all. A USTA Community Tennis Association (CTA) is "any incorporated, geographically defined, not-for-profit, volunteer-based organization that supports or provides programs which promote and develop the growth of tennis."
