IronOaks Tennis Club is thrilled to recognize four of our USTA teams who won their season on the local level and advanced to the sectional competitions on December 11-13. All four teams were in Surprise, AZ at that time. These are all 65 and over teams. Their competition was teams from the rest of Arizona, New Mexico and the greater El Paso area.
It is amazing to have one club produce this many teams at these levels! That does not exist elsewhere in the southwest.
