SNOHOMISH COUNTY, Wash. – Two high profile tennis tournaments will be coming to the Snohomish County over the next month.
The Adult 55 & Over Section Championships will be held June 24-27 at Columbia Athletic Club-Silver Lake, Harbor Square Racquet Club, and Robinswood Tennis Center. The Mixed 18 & Over Section Championships will be held July 16-18 at Glacier Peak High School and Harbor Square Racquet Club.
United States Tennis Association (USTA) Leagues are the largest recreational league in the country with over 900,000 participants. The Pacific Northwest alone has over 38,000 USTA League participants.
USTA League players participate in Local Leagues in six local areas (northwest Washington, southwest Washington, eastern Washington/northern Idaho, northern Oregon, southern Oregon, and Alaska) with league winners advancing to the Section Championships. Winners of the Section Championships advance to the USTA League National Championships held this fall.
“We are very excited to have Snohomish County be the host site for two of our Section Championships,” said Adam Hutchinson, USTA Pacific Northwest director of competition. “On the heels of a successful Fed Cup (now called the Billie Jean King Cup) in February of 2020, it’s obvious that Snohomish County is passionate about tennis.”
“The opportunity to host these USTA Pacific Northwest Tennis Section Championships is a huge win for Snohomish County,” states Tammy Dunn, Snohomish County Sports Commission executive director. “We look forward to welcoming the tennis players and their family members and cheering them on.”
