“This was an absolute joy to run as the tennis participants were all about getting out on the courts and playing some competitive tennis” said Steve Chagnan, TLN CEO. The majority of the tennis participants who attended won their respective playoffs to get the right to take part in the National tourney.
The metro area seasons under the TLN network of city leagues serve to connect local, committed tennis participants who love the sport of tennis. Our team make sure that players are united with equally skilled tennis partners. Matches are played predominantly on public tennis courts. It has been a highly prosperous program, Chagnan said. Since 2006, there have been more than 42,700 matches played; 2009 saw a 51% increase in on court connections over 2008.
TLN was inspired to create this National tournament as the impeccable closing for all the players who have won championships in their respective cities, said Chagnan. The 36 tennis participants represented most major cities, including Philly, Miami, OC, Washington DC, Metro Boston, St. Louie, Denver, Twin Cities and Los Angeles. players were categorized in mini-divisions of 5 players, and played in a round-robin using a 10 pro set format (First to win10 games). The top 2 players from each mini-division advanced onto a single elimination tourney with other skill-level mini-division qualifiers.
Registration begins Jan. 1st for the 2010 spring season for Tennis League Networks 33 online tennis communities, which are committed to bringing together local tennis players of every level — from beginners to open players– who desire to play a lot of singles matches and make new friends.
