Our second annual Friends and Family Holiday Tennis Event was a smashing success! Over 50 players gathered at the NAU Tennis Center in Flagstaff for a weekend of fun, festive, and competitive tennis.
The tournament featured a variety of doubles teams, including mothers and sons, fathers and daughters, friends, and other combinations. This created a warm and inclusive atmosphere where everyone felt welcome.
Each team had the opportunity to play two matches per day on the excellent indoor courts at NAU. The event was well-organized by USTA Southwest, who provided balls, snacks, and a smooth tournament experience.
Players were encouraged to dress up for the holidays, adding to the festive atmosphere and fun of the event. There were plenty of smiles, laughter, and holiday cheer both on and off the court.
The tournament featured multiple flights based on skill level, ensuring that players could compete against evenly matched teams. This resulted in many close and exciting matches.
The winners of each flight were:
Mixed Doubles: Leyton Fetty/Ava Andrews
Coed Doubles: Jacob Bordelon/Johanna Steigerwald
Men’s Doubles: AJ Mraz/Sean Spoler
Coed Doubles: Amelia Raab/Tiger Kantatut
Coed Doubles: Peter Kim/Noelle Kim
Coed Doubles: Barbara Bates/Deborah Cavaliere
Congratulations to all the winners and participants! We would like to thank all the players, volunteers, and sponsors who made this event possible. We look forward to seeing you all again next year for another fantastic holiday tennis celebration!
