USTA Southern
A Community Tennis Association (CTA) is a local organization that is part of the USTA network that promotes and develops the growth of tennis and is made up of tennis enthusiasts interested in seeing the game of tennis grow in their area.Welcome to USTA Southern
Welcome to the online home of USTA Southern! Our organization covers tennis enthusiasts across nine states in the South: Alabama, Arkansas, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina and Tennessee
Founded in 1881, the United States Tennis Association (USTA) is the national governing body for the sport of tennis in this country. In addition to owning the US Open and selecting members of the U.S. Davis Cup, Fed Cup, Olympic and Paralympic teams, the USTA administers a variety of programs nationwide for players of all ages and ability levels.
A not-for-profit organization, the association is divided into 17 sections, of which the USTA Southern is the largest. The 158,000+ USTA members living in our nine states account for approximately 25 percent of the total USTA membership.
USTA Southern’s daily operations are carried out by a professional staff based in Peachtree Corners, Ga., but policy is formed and much of the organization’s work is executed via a Board of Directors and committee structure of over 200 volunteers.
