How many teams are there? How many pros are on each team? Do players choose their teams? Are they assigned or chosen? Are they just playing exhibitions, or is there something on the line? These are just a few of the questions that are answered below in anticipation of the season’s first match at Gulf Harbour Golf and Country Club on Friday November 7 at 4:00 p.m.
What is the USPTA Fort Myers Pro League?
According to Pat Anderson, executive administrator of USPTA Florida, the original objective was to “promote USPTA camaraderie among members; to expand playing opportunities for pros in the area; and to provide local communities the opportunity to watch great tennis.” In addition to Fort Myers, pro leagues have taken root in several tennis communities across Florida, including Naples, Boca Raton, Orlando, Sarasota, Tampa, and North Dade/South Broward.
Turning specifically to the USPTA Fort Myers Pro League, it is a team competition from October through March, among four local-area business-sponsored teams of USPTA Tennis Professionals. Each team is comprised of eight primary players and one substitute. Team matches consist of three men’s doubles matches and one mixed doubles match, and teams garner one point per set. At the end of the season, the team with the most points wins.
