About USTA Leagues
USTA League is the country’s largest recreational tennis league. DCTA has one of the most active leagues in the NC. Whether you are just starting out or returning to tennis after a break, there is a place for you. Age divisions start at age 18 and extend through 70 and older.
Play is based on the USTA’s NTRP rating system which enables you to play with players of similar skill level. If you’re new to the Pitt County area or new to tennis, we can help. Feel free to contact us! Learn more about what to expect from USTA League tennis here.
