USTA League Ability Level: DETERMINE YOUR RATING  



Above all, tennis should be fun. Players can get the most enjoyment from the sport by playing with others of a similar level for more compatible matches.

Designed simply as a guide, the rating categories may be adjusted depending on your competitive ability or as your skills change. Ultimately, your rating is based on your match results.  If you are unsure of your level, choose the higher level of play. 

 

Once you've read the descriptions, you can create a free USTA account and self-rate your tennis level at any time.
