About the Keweenaw Tennis Association

The Keweenaw Tennis Association (KTA) is a newly established 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to growing tennis in the Keweenaw.

Our goal is to expand opportunities for junior and adult players through events like leagues, tournaments, and social events. We also hope to promote tennis in area schools, particularly high schools, and advocate for improved public tennis facilities.

What Is a Community Tennis Association?

Community Tennis Associations (CTAs) are local, volunteer-based organizations that bring people together to promote and develop tennis. They organize programs, support community initiatives, and work to make tennis more accessible.

Learn more about Community Tennis Associations at the USTA website.

KTA and Michigan Tech

KTA is an independent nonprofit organization, separate from Michigan Technological University.

However, we hope to coordinate closely with Michigan Tech's Recreation and Athletics departments to expand tennis opportunities in the community. KTA will rent courts at the Gates Tennis Center, subject to facility availability and agreed-upon arrangements.

Our objective is to complement existing MTU tennis programs while creating additional opportunities for people throughout the region to play.

Get Involved

KTA is just getting started, and community participation will be essential to its success.

Are you interested in serving on KTA's future board, helping organize programs, assisting with our website, or simply sharing ideas about growing tennis in the Keweenaw?

We'd love to hear from you!
