Purpose: To encourage tennis growth in the Central Illinois region. This is not a USTA group but it is highly encouraged to join USTA if you eventually want to play in local tournaments. This is a group of people who want to meet others who enjoy tennis and would like to practice and play as much as possible to improve their game and make friends in the process. Other ideas for this group would be to organize get-togethers, inner-group mixers and so on. Open to suggestions!
