COAST TO COAST FRIENDSHIP CUP

Tennis is better when we play together! 🎾

CORTA is proud to welcome the Coast to Coast Friendship Cup, where the National Women’s Tennis Organization (NWTO) and the National Men’s Tennis Association (NMTA) team up for some friendly competition.

Each side brings 9 men and 9 women from across the country to compete in women’s, men’s, and mixed doubles at the 65, 70, and 75 divisions. But this event isn’t just about the score—it’s about making friends, sharing laughs, and celebrating the love of the game.

Come join the fun and cheer on these amazing players from all over the U.S. as they rally for camaraderie, community, and a whole lot of tennis!
