Grand Prix
Tennis League - West Wind Park - City of Lauderhill
Coach
Donny Lawrie and Travares Campbell, USPTA are committed to providing quality
tennis programs and services for the tennis playing public
of Broward County, Florida. West Wind Tennis Center, centrally located
in South Florida, is open to the public. The park features five hard courts
in excellent condition situated in a quiet park setting. Players of all
levels are welcome to join our Adult Tennis League. Our in-house league has
been going strong since it began in 1994.
Any player arriving more than 15 minutes after scheduled starting time or time agreed on by both players can be defaulted.
A "no show" is when a player comes to the court and
waits for his opponent for 15 minutes after the scheduled starting time
and the opponent does not show up or call to say that he is on the way.
In this case, the player who showed up for the match will be awarded the
win. The match will be entered in the ranking software as a win for the
player who showed up. The computer will change the rankings of each
player as if the match had been played and the score was 6-0, 6-0 in
favor of the player who showed up.

Membership
Benefits:
Our Tennis League utilizes NTRP
Type Ranking values that players recognize. Players upon joining the
league are assigned a rating, and our computerized ranking software
maintains their relative rankings
Our proven system has demonstrated that
friendly competition and peer pressure
are powerful influences that encourage players to improve their skills.
Our
ranking software ranks players and schedules them competitively,
resulting in enjoyable matches for everyone
Our League Director initially assigns
(the equivalent of) a USTA rating to all the players. Our ranking
software tracks players and matches, based on this rank, which results
in enjoyable play for all. Players believe in a ranking system, when it
is done scientifically by performance rather than subjectively by how
they "look" or "think" they play
