Nearly 500 teammates will have eyes on a title this weekend, and it’s all happening in New Jersey.

USTA Adult 18 & Over Section Championships kick off in three New Jersey locations, Mercer County Park, Veterans Park and Princeton University, on Friday, August 15 and run through Sunday, August 17. Teams from across the Section qualified for the championships by winning their respective District Championships, which took place earlier this summer across sites in New Jersey, Delaware and Pennsylvania.

Men and women from the 2.5-5.0 divisions will be competing for the Middle States title.

Winning teams from this weekend’s event will receive the title of Section Champions and advance to the National Championships in Arizona or California, depending on the division played.

USTA League Tennis is a competitive, team-based match play format designed for all players 18 and older and of all skill level. Teams are generally made up of approximately eight players, depending on the division played, and all matches are played against those of a similar skill level.

Teams will compete in both singles and doubles this weekend.
