USTA Leagues
We encourage the formation of USTA leagues and will work with team captains to get reserved court time for scheduled matches. Captains: please email blackmountaintennis@gmail.com to let us know that you have formed a team. Note that all players must be active BMTA members.
The Western NC League Hub is packed with resources for both players and captains. Everything you need is in one place: league descriptions, days of play, rules, and lots more. You can find it from the WNC Leagues tab on the Asheville Tennis Association’s website
Many of our programs and events are made possible by volunteers.
