Missouri Valley / Oklahoma

Note from our President

November 17, 2020


Dear USTA Oklahoma Tennis Player:

 

WE MADE IT!

 

Through the combined efforts of our wonderful USTA Oklahoma staff, our fabulous Oklahoma Facilities and providers, and YOU- we have been able to safely resume almost all our 2020 tennis programming! This fact is amazing!

 

Junior Team Tennis, Junior Tournaments, Adult Tournaments, and almost every Adult League offered in 2019, were all resumed and were successful. Things might have looked a little different as far as time of year, or length of play, and all had added safety restrictions, but we got to play!

 

As I look toward the end of 2020, and think about how our Oklahoma tennis community came together to make this happen, I want to offer a huge amount of gratitude to the USTA Oklahoma staff, who scheduled, rescheduled, and tried to anticipate and navigate player safety in a global pandemic.

 

 To the facilities and providers who worked so hard to maintain safe play and stay open.

 

And finally, to the wonderful Oklahoma tennis players, whether adult or junior, Thank You for your support, and confidence in USTA Oklahoma. 

 

Here is to 2021, and a lot more tennis!

 

 See you on the courts,

 

Mary Jo Tasker
