  • Please make and mail deposit checks to: USTA Kentucky, Attn: Kathy Klein, 8900 Greeneway Commons Pl, Ste 101, Louisville, KY 40220

New Regulation for Teams that Advanced to/ Qualified for Nationals the Previous Year

The below regulation was not originally included in the regulations provided by USTA Southern, but the updated regulations are now available on the TACK website.

2.06A(2): Split-Up - No more than three (3) players who were on the roster of any team that advanced to, or qualified for, any National Championship team the previous year may play together in the same Division, same Age Group and at the same NTRP team level as the National Championship team(s), if their NTRP rating allows. Split-Up requirements only apply to players who participated in two (2) or more matches (no default received shall count) for that team during the championship year.

 


Court Fees for 2023 TACK League Play

All three clubs (Bluegrass Racquet Club, Lexington Tennis Club, and Top Seed Tennis Club) charge identical court fees for all originally scheduled matches. All court fees are payable to the clubs unless otherwise specified.  Contact us for questions.  

ADULT AND FUN LEAGUES:

  • 18+/40+: $15.09 + tax = $16.00 (Session 1/2, and concurrent "Fun Leagues")
  • 55+: $12.74 + tax = $13.50 (Session 1/2, and concurrent "Fun Leagues")

TRI-LEVEL LEAGUE: $8/player per match

MIXED AND COMBO LEAGUES: TACK is paying for all court cost for all Mixed Doubles and Combo League matches as originally scheduled.  Please see TennisLink for information on match locations.

COURT FEES: There are NO COURT FEES for Mixed Doubles and Combo League matches at their originally scheduled facility.  Players ONLY need to pay court fees if a match originally scheduled outdoors is moved indoors (LTC, BRC or Top Seed indoors) due to rain at the decision of the team captains.

RESCHEDULING MIXED DOUBLES/COMBO LEAGUE MATCHES: To reschedule a match at Ecton or Shillito, please email TACK Local League Coordinator Tara McGuire at mcguire.tara@gmail.com, with 2-3 potential dates/times to reschedule listed.  To reschedule a match at LTC (859.272.4546), BRC (jonathan@bluegrassracquetclub.com) or Top Seed (859.436.8520), please contact each facility directly.  

If a match originally scheduled outdoors is rained out....

(A) Captains may mutually agree to reschedule outdoor matches at the original facility at no additional cost to players (TACK is paying court fees for all matches played at their original venue - P&R outdoors, Top Seed outdoors, BRC and LTC).  

(B) Captains may also mutually agree to reschedule an outdoor match at an indoor facility of their choice with players paying court fees directly to the club (same as in previous years).  

 

FALL LEAGUE:

  • 18+/40+: $15.09 + tax = $16.00
  • 55+: $12.74 + tax = $13.50
24-HOUR RULE: The 24-hour rule for court cancellations is in effect, meaning captains must cancel courts for local league matches directly with the club at least 24-hours prior to the match to avoid being charged for the court. Please provide as much notice to clubs as possible - we depend on clubs to give us these great court times and frequent especially last minute cancellations are problematic.
 
To reschedule a match or cancel courts, please contact.... 
  • BRC - jonathan@bluegrassracquetclub.com  
  • LTC - 859.272.4546
  • Top Seed - 859.436.8520 (after hours, captains may reach out to Bradley Bryan via his cell at 954-812-7388)
  • For outdoor facilities, please see the above Combo/Mixed Leagues section
