GEPTA/SNM USTA Leagues

There have been some major rule changes that will be implemented for 2024 leagues. One of the changes that will take place is the percentage of players in level on a team.. All teams must have and maintain 40 percent of players in level in order to have a team. (Ex. In order to have a 3.5 team, 40 percent of the players must be 3.5). There are no exceptions to this rule. This rule will only apply to 18 and over and 40 and over leagues. Combo and mixed leagues will not be affected.
