Wheelchair & Run/Roll

You’ll experience some amazing tennis with the incredible athletes in ALTA’s Wheelchair and Run/Roll Leagues! The Wheelchair League attracts players from all over the metropolitan area. Open to ages 12 and up, the league plays Tuesday evenings in the spring and fall out of a centrally located tennis facility. Regular season play lasts six weeks and finishes with an exciting City Finals event. The Run/Roll League plays on Tuesday evenings in the summer. Doubles teams consist of one chair player and one runner. The runner follows regular tennis rules, and the chair player uses wheelchair rules (two bounces allowed). The number of teams and lines played in each of these leagues depends on how many players are registered each season. Players are matched against others of comparable ability, which allows for a competitive and fun tennis environment. Purchase an adult or junior ALTA membership to join this ever-growing league!
