Letter From President Mary Jo Tasker
Please read USTA Oklahoma’s first letter from our new President, Mary Jo Tasker.
I love to watch tennis. Tennis on TV, tennis in the parks, school tennis, tennis at our local Oklahoma facilities—really all tennis. Tennis players are my people! Juniors, adults, seniors or professionals, we are all looking for that perfect point; it is what keeps us playing, and what connects us.
I’m so excited to continue my involvement in Oklahoma tennis as USTA Oklahoma President. It is a wonderful privilege to see full courts, full leagues, and excited players of all ages across the state. Not only does Oklahoma have the numbers, excitement, and activity across the USTA Missouri Valley, but we truly have the best staff! Your USTA Oklahoma staff does a fantastic job working to provide all the junior tournaments, adult leagues, Tennis on Campus and NJTL experiences that Oklahoma tennis players want.
In addition to our local tennis, in 2019 Oklahoma hosted two section-level tournaments for the USTA Missouri Valley, and—drum roll—two National Championships! It’s good to be an Oklahoma tennis player!
So here we go—a new year, a new season and lots more tennis! I look forward to the 2020 tennis season and can’t wait to see what this New Year brings for us all!
