Tascosa Athletic Center hosting first UTR Verified Doubles Tennis Tourney
ABC 7 news came out to the Athletic Center March 10 to interview Tascosa Athletic Center Director, Cori Burns.
“We are hosting TGC’s first UTR tournament which is a double’s tournament and UTR stands for universal tennis rating and it’s a rating used across the globe with tennis players so you can see where you rate in level based on everybody else in the world," said Cori Burns.
The entry fee is $60 for members and $70 for non-members. This tournament is a chance to have fun, compete, all while helping out a good cause.
“Our goal is to fill the tournament, to have 16 teams in each division. A portion of the proceeds is going back to West Texas Tennis Professionals in support of their tournament. They do a pro tournament in September, so that helps them put on other local tournaments as well as that tournament and my hope is that we have a lot of interests so we can have more and more tournaments like this and more opportunity for our players to play locally,” Burns said.
The tournament starts Friday, March 19th and runs through Sunday, March 21st at the Tascosa Athletic Center at Tascosa Golf Club.
