USTA Texas is proud to announce the seven winners of the 2026 Best of Texas Tennis People’s Choice Campaign. Members of the Texas Tennis community nominate and vote on groups and organizations who represent excellence across the sport in the Lone Star State.
AUSTIN – Voters from across Texas have spoken and this year’s seven Best of Texas Tennis winners are here. Each year, the Best of Texas Tennis campaign asks the Texas Tennis community to nominate and choose their favorites who represent excellence across multiple categories in tennis.
This year featured a reimagining of the campaign with multiple new categories and an all-new voting process. This year featured 182 unique nominees and over 4,900 votes were cast on seven individual ballots. The most popular category was the Best School Tennis Team which featured 103 nominations from across Texas. Another popular category, the Best Tennis Facility, received 40 nominations.
Craig Cole, head professional at Kiest Tennis Center, reflects on the community’s collective effort.
"This is more than just an award," Cole said. "It represents the dedication, hard work, and passion that our staff, coaches, players, families, and entire community pour into Kiest every day."
USTA Texas Director of Marketing and Communications said this year’s campaign highlights the strength of Texas tennis.
“Texans are passionate about tennis and community is what fuels that energy,” he said. “This year’s winners come from across our state and are a true reflection of how local groups can come together to share their love for tennis and the impact it makes on lives everywhere.”
Congratulations to all of our 2026 Best of Texas Tennis winners!
