Program Goal The USTA’s Tennis On Campus program was developed to promote and support the

expansion ofrecreational tennis on college campuses. Whether through intramural tournaments and

leagues or in amore structured sport club environment where teams compete interscholastically, the

Tennis On Campusprogram focuses on providing co-ed team play opportunities for the entire campus

community.

BackgroundTennis On Campus is currently run on more than 500 campuses across the country and

providesorganized play opportunities for over 30,000 participants. Using this program as a base, we

providesocially-competitive play opportunities for co-ed travel teams through Tennis On Campus

RegionalLeagues and USTA Campus Championship – section events.

USTA Campus Championship - section events provide program linkage and an increased level of

competition for teams wishing to advance from their Tennis On Campus program through to the USTA

National Campus Championship held each spring.

Teams become eligible for the USTA National Campus Championship by first attending their respective

section event. Finalists are awarded automatic bids into the national championship and additional slots

are filled on a first come / first serve basis to schools that have attended a section championship. This

creates a deeper platform of participation at the regional level as schools typically field multiple teams in

an effort to win their respective section events.

Rationale Recruitment - The college market holds approximately 15 million students available for

tennis. Themarket is easy to target and reach, generally has access to available tennis courts and an

existing tennisprogram of some type on their campus. Tennis On Campus provides colleges and

universities with anopportunity to improve campus life by helping students of similar interests get connected,

learn newskills and remain active and healthy while attending college.

Retention - There are over 330,000 high school varsity tennis players each year. Less than 7% (roughly

20,000) will have the talent and ability needed to compete on a varsity tennis team while attending

college. By expanding recreational team play opportunities on campus we can help retain these high

school players through college and bridge them into established adult recreational leagues and

tournaments after graduation.
