USTA Mid-Atlantic is a nonprofit organization committed to promoting tennis and its physical, social, and emotional health benefits. We envision a community where tennis is accessible and available for all people to play. The USTA/Mid-Atlantic Section, one of 17 sections of the United States Tennis Association, is a not-for-profit organization committed to promoting tennis by offering quality recreational and competitive programs for people of all ages and abilities. USTA Mid-Atlantic has a wide-reaching impact. We operate leagues, tournaments, and other programs and events throughout the region for over 28,000 adult and youth members in Washington D.C., Maryland, Virginia, and eastern and southern West Virginia. We support the community providers, facilities, and coaches that directly deliver the sport. The many health and social benefits of tennis have made it more popular than ever, and USTA Mid-Atlantic’s programs and outreach are rising to meet that demand. USTA Mid-Atlantic has been part of the official governing body for tennis in America since 1923. Mid-Atlantic holds Sectional Championships in USTA Leagues, Junior Team Tennis, Junior and Adult Tournaments, and Tennis On Campus. Founded in 1881, the USTA is the national governing body for tennis in the United States, owns the US Open, and administers junior and adult programs in state, regional, and national events.
