Our Story
The programs that we provide include, but are not limited to, Advancing and Non-Advancing USTA leagues, Junior Team Tennis, adult and junior tournaments, and school and community tennis.
The goal of the NAZ Region is to provide a pathway for all ages to play tennis, from young juniors, teenagers, young adults, to senior adults. The programming includes 1) providing the basics of tennis and ball sports; and (2) creating both recreational and competitive tennis for all ages and levels of NAZ tennis players.
Within our Region, are several areas that have Community Tennis Associations which help the Region provide tennis opportunities in their respective areas. These tennis opportunities include USTA and non-USTA programming. The CTAs are Flagstaff Tennis Association, Kingman Tennis Association and Prescott Area Tennis Association.
