Bluewater Bay Tennis Center USTA Pro Circuit Championships

Emerald Coast Tennis Council, inc. will sponsor this event at The Bluewater Bay Tennis Center in Niceville, FL from November 7 - 16, 2014. The Bluewater Bay Pro Circuit Champions tournament is a $10,000 purse professional event where world class players compete for prize money and coveted ATP points which allow them to gain entry to matches with larger purses and more ATP points. The tournament will also feature a complimentary KIds’ Day showcasing a 10 and Under Tennis Clinic, a Pro-Am Tournament and act as a host site for the the USTA’s Adopt-A-Unit Intiative. Beginning in 2011, this joint effort with the White House and USTA was implemented to support and honor America’s service members by “adopting” a military unit of anywhere between 25 and 100 servicemembers deployed to Afghanistan by collecting donations and sending care packages of necessities.
