San Carlos has 65-75 teams a year. Teams fill up quickly. WHY NOT BE A CAPTAIN? Please contact SCTC's USTA coordinator (usta@sancarlostennis.com) if you are interested in being a captain; the club can give you training and support to fill this essential role. The club also has guidelines for USTA teams with respect to minimum team size per league.
Rules governing league play and a great deal of additional information on USTA Leagues and on USTA NTRP Ratings is available on the USTA website. Every player should be familiar with The Code.
USTA is the country's largest recreational tennis league, providing organized, structured team matches for more than 30,000 men and women of all ability levels. In Northern California, tennis is an integral part of life and our teams can be found on courts in the Bay Area and Sacramento, Santa Clara to Marin to Mendocino Counties, as far north as Redding and as far south as Fresno. Teams are set up according to NTRP rating, so you're always sure that you'll be facing off against someone of comparable ability. That keeps the competition lively and the atmosphere social. And as part of a team, you've got a built-in support entourage that few pros can match.
Whether you're a beginner or you're in a league of your own, we've got a team for players like you. Age qualification is based on the calendar year of the league. For example, with the 40+ league, you could join at age 39 but must turn 40 during the calendar year.
