Congratulations to the new USTA National Champions from Oklahoma!

Congratulations to the new USTA League National Champions from Oklahoma! The team, captained by Jeannie Sacra, won the Adult 65 & Over 6.0 Women’s Championship held in Surprise, Arizona this past weekend. It’s an incredible accomplishment for a team that had never played together prior to this season.

Sacra and teammates Rebecca Lydy, Kim KnifeChief, Vicki Smith, Susan Driesel, Donna Hazle, Cathi Wing, Janet Rader, Blythe Fowler, Gayle Johnson, and Karen Smith formed their team through LaFortune Tennis Center in Tulsa. Their championship is the first for a LaFortune team since 2018, and only the second since 2007.

USTA Adult League is the country’s largest recreational tennis league with more than 300,000 players nationwide.  Last year, the state of Oklahoma had over 8,500 participants and over 600 adult league teams.  If you are just picking up a racquet or been wanting to return to the courts, teams are still forming for 2023.  Don’t miss out this year and sign up now!
