Adult League

• Register Your Team/Request a Team Number
• State, District and Section Championship Information
• National Championship Information

Goal of the league is to provide 10-12 matches per season but is dependent on the number of teams registered.

Per USTA regulations:  Two team leagues must meet the 40% at NTRP level rule.  Teams are scheduled to play each other a minimum of five times.

In most situations, we follow the below formats for scheduling except during Mixed and Combo 

• 3 or 4 teams: constitutes on flight and play each other 3x - no playoffs
• 8 or less teams: constitutes one flight and play each other 2x in a season - no playoffs
• 9-10 teams: plays each team in flight 1x with playoffs - # of teams in playoffs is Top 2

• 11-17 teams: plays each team in flight 1x with playoffs - # of teams in playoffs (max of 3 teams includes day league). In some cases this can also go to a random draw with the same number of teams going to championships.  

• 18 -29 teams: divided into two flights - top team in each flight goes to playoffs
• 30 or more teams divided into three flights with the Winner of each flight going to Championships

The number of matches will be determined by the number of weeks available and number of teams in the league. In some cases, a partial round robin or a random draw will be implemented.

Championships format for multiple flights/sub-flights/sub-flights within a level

If there are multiple flights and or sub-flights, and the teams play each other once within the flight/sub-flight, the number 1 team of each flight/sub-flight will automatically advance to a position in the District Championships. A maximum of 3 teams will be invited to District Championships UNLESS there are 4 flights/sub-flights for a particular level of play. In that instance, 4 teams will advance to the district championships.

If teams play each other two or more times within a flight/sub-flight, only the number 1 team advances to the District Championships.

If a team declines a spot in District Championships, teams with winning records within the flight will be invited to fill spots.
