UTR Junior Tournaments at STC

To find other tournaments, go to USTA Tournaments.  List your zip code, and then use the search information on the left-hand side of the page to find the divisions you are looking to enter.

What level should my player play?

Red/Orange/Green/Yellow ball players who are playing their first tournaments should register for our UTR Junior Circuit events, which feature leveled play for Red, Orange, Green and Yellow ball competition.

Players who have done will in these events should sign up for Level 7 tournaments, which are the entry level tournaments for USTA play. There is a USTA Junior Circuit for Orange/Green ball players and a Level 7 tournament for Yellow Ball.  Level 7 tournaments favor beginner players.

Level 6 and Level 5 tournaments are for more advanced players and require a USTA national ranking to enter. Players are selected based on their ranking, from high to low.

What are player rankings and ratings?

Players earn rankings based on their match play in tournaments. USTA National ranking points are earned in USTA tournaments only, and are used to determine selection to USTA events. UTR tournaments have a separate rating that is used to UTR tournaments only. This rating is used to place players in UTR tournaments.

One benefit of playing USTA tournaments is that match results will post in the player’s UTR profile, so matches count towards both USTA ranking and UTR ratings.

Tournament Entry (B/G 12’s-18’s)

Players are now allowed to enter any level tournament. However, tournaments now have limited entries per division. In Level 1-6 tournaments, the number of players in each draw will vary based on the tournament. This information will be listed on the home page of the tournament. Players are not restricted to certain levels, they can register for any tournament. However, players will be selected based on their rankings.  The remaining players will go on a waitlist.  Players may enter as many tournaments in a month as they would like to play, but they cannot enter more than one tournament per weekend. 

Level 7 Tournaments will accept players in reverse order of their rankings. This means the least experienced players will be chosen first. It is expected that Level 7 players will have some match play experience.

Tournament Entry (B/G 10U Red/Orange/Green)

10U events are available as UTR Junior Circuit events and USTA Junior Circuit tournaments All USTA Level 6-7 tournaments will have a separate tournament for these divisions for players to play in. Parents should use the USTA Tournament Link to list their zip code and then sort for 10U divisions to find events in our area.
