The USTA leagues are getting in full “swing” for the Spring season. Teams are forming now and registering for the Feb. 6 deadline. Players can continue to be added to the teams up until April 3.

We will have teams from Anniston Country Club, Gadsden Country Club, Oxford Park, and Pell City. The play levels are Ladies 2.5, 3.0, and 3.5. We’re excited about getting the first men’s league. It’s going to be at the 3.0 level.

Ladies 2.5 play Wednesday mornings, Ladies 3.0 play Tuesday mornings, Men 3.0 play Thursday evenings, Ladies 3.5 play Monday mornings.

The season will run from Feb. 13 through the beginning of May. Anyone interested in playing on a team or getting involved in tennis, no matter what their level of play, should contact those facilities or the local league coordinator for USTA, Red Wilder 435-4992.
