Nearly 190 players converged on Buttonwood Tennis Club Sunday to fight for pride in representing their respective tennis clubs. It was a beautiful day for players and spectators alike. Sixteen clubs entered teams consisting of men and women at the 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 levels. Each division played men's doubles, women's doubles and mixed doubles. All this activity was organized by the expert professionals at Buttonwood TC and assisted by volunteers from the Treasure Coast Tennis Foundation. Early refreshments and lunch were provided. Pro-shop merchandise sales and raffle prize drawings topped off the fun and festivities. At the end of the day, the North River Shores team took home Battle Trophy. NRSTC will hold the Trophy until this time next year when the Battle commences again!
See you then!

Tennis Meet-Ups have come to the Treasure Coast. Meet-Ups are monthly events aimed at players of all levels aged 21 to 45. The events are all different and held at different locations around the area. But the common denominator is FUN !
So watch for the announcements and be prepared for anything. The first Meet-up will be November 1st and feature dinner, drinks, music, and organized play. The monthly Junior Novice Tournament series has been a growing success all summer. Players compete in age groups to collect points that build up month to month throughout the season. July's event hosted 17 players at the Marriott Beach Resort on Hutchinson Island. If you haven't played it yet - it's not too late to jump in the fun! Look for the August announcement in the TCTF Calendar.
