USTA Middle States Awards
Nominate for a 2025 Middle States Award
USTA Middle States annually recognizes excellence in tennis, honoring the volunteers, organizations, programs and members who have done an outstanding job on and off the court to help promote the growth of tennis. The winners are chosen through a representation of USTA MS volunteers and staff, working together to compile nominations from each of the six Middle States districts: Allegheny Mountain (AMD), Central Pennsylvania (CPD), Delaware (DD), Eastern Pennsylvania (EPD), New Jersey (NJD) and the Philadelphia Area (PATD). Recipients are honored at their respective district award ceremonies, which occur throughout the year.
