LET'S COMPETE. RIGHT HERE IN W2!

That's right folks, its the annual USTA (United States Tennis Association) summer tournament at Whitman.  The Subway State Games of WA is hosted by Coach Jeff at Whitman and has skill divisions for novice (first tournament) players, challenger (getting into match play but haven't won lots of matches or a tournament at the level) or Champs (more experienced tournament players playing for ranking points).  Age groups are 10-18 and this is a sanctioned tournament, so the entrant must be a USTA member (a GREAT thing to have).

If you have questions before the entry deadline of TOMORROW (Sat 6/30) at 11:59pm, please contact Coach John, otherwise contact coach Jeff, or signup online at:
http://tennislink.usta.com/Tournaments/TournamentHome_New/Tournament.aspx?T=119449

You can also try emailing Coach Jeff (coach@whitman.edu) after Saturday to see if he can take any late entries (which is likely).

Age groups and skill levels may be combined in small draws and there will be lots of fun and competitive tennis right here in our backyard, join us!

Coaches Jeff and John
