April 22, 2020

USTA Missouri Valley 65s Invitational hosted by USTA Heart of America

This event has been canceled due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

The tournament committee recently met via a Zoom teleconference to discuss all the issues involved in holding the tournament this year. After much discussion, the committee came to a unanimous decision to cancel the tournament for everyone's health and safety.

Overland Park Racquet Club — Overland Park, Kansas (6800 W. 91st St. Overland Park, KS 66212)

The event will feature a social gathering, captain's gifts, awards for winning teams and the opportunity to go to USTA League Nationals.

All matches played indoors.

Invitation to the top team from each district at each level - 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0. Winning teams will qualify for the 65s National Championship to be held in 2021.

Depending upon the number of teams registering, additional teams will be invited. No player qualification necessary for this event. However, a player must have played two times to qualify for the national event.

We anticipate being able to offer invitations to two teams per district. (Limit of 10 teams per Level – If we surpass eight teams in a level, two additional teams will be required to make an even number of 10 teams. Invitations issued at discretion of 65s Invitational Committee.

Because of the increased cost of indoor courts and the desire to accommodate as many teams as possible, the USTA Heart of America 65s Invitational Committee has made the decision to not provide player gifts. The money saved will go toward the payment for additional indoor courts in an effort to prevent the scheduling of late night matches.

Dates that teams and players must be registered by May 13 will be announced shortly. Contact your League Coordinator for registration details.
