Tennis Apprentice class posing in front of net

The 2.5 Women's Novice Tennis League is tailored for individuals who may be relatively new to the sport or are refining their techniques. This league is specifically designed for those in the early stages of their tennis journey, creating a space where players can comfortably and confidently develop their skills. If you feel at ease and confident enough to perform well in a match, the 2.5 Novice Tennis League may not be the ideal fit, as its primary focus is on providing a supportive environment for players who are still building their tennis proficiency. Whether you’re stepping onto the court for the first time for a match, or dedicatedly working on your game, this league offers a space for players to grow and enjoy the game at their own pace.

What distinguishes the 2.5 Novice Tennis League from the USTA 2.5 League is its unique focus on providing players with an avenue for skill development. This league serves as your gateway to state qualification, offering participants a season filled with camaraderie and the chance to hone their skills. Beyond the enjoyment of the game and friendly competition, the emphasis lies on personal growth and the exciting prospect of representing your league at the state level.
