SUMMER CAMP UTR COMPETITION

Top Flight Summer Camp
Green Ball Summer Camp

Improve results and boost your rating this summer with UTR competitive events.

Wessen hosts UTR match play events during the summer that are designed for our Top Flight and Green Ball Summer Camp students. Players receive VERIFIED Universal Tennis Rating (UTR) credit for all matches played. UTR Rating is one of the key indicators college coaches use for during recruitment. Additionally, Wessen Indoor Tennis Club uses the UTR system as part of our group structure in Top Flight Academy. We are excited to present this opportunity to players new to UTR who want to #GetRated, as well as for UTR veterans who strive to improve their performance and rating.

UTR VERIFIED MATCH PLAY

Camp students can use one visit for match play in lieu of the fee. For those who do not want to use their package of visits, the fee is $34 (please see details at the bottom of the page.) The start times below indicate the earliest the matches will be scheduled. First-round matches may begin later than the times indicated below, depending on the number of participants.

HOW TO REGISTER FOR MATCH PLAY:

Summer Camp students register for match play online at the UTR website. Campers can use one visit to regiser.  Online registration is free for campers, however, it is necessary to register as outlined below:

  1. Players who have a UTR Power Subscription can register FREE at any time – no special link is required. We will internally charge players one visit for each event.
  2. Players who DO NOT HAVE a UTR Power Subscription must request a special link (sent via email to info@wessenitc.com) to register online for FREE.
    • The deadline to request the link is 12:00 pm, two days prior to the event. We send out email reminders every Friday with information on the deadlines.
    • Tuesday Match Play: Deadline to request the link is 12:00 pm on Sunday.
    • Thursday Match Play: Deadline to request the link is 12:00 pm on Tuesday.
    • Friday Match Play: Deadline to request the link is 3:00 pm on Wednesday.
    • Campers who do not want to use a visit, and non-power subscribers who miss the “special link” deadline, can still sign up for match play, provided that online registration has not ended. There will, however, be a $12.50 registration fee from Universal Tennis. We cannot override this fee.
  3. All match play results count toward the players’ VERIFIED UTR rating. This is a great opportunity to improve match play results AND boost a player’s rating over the course of the summer!

DETROIT JR CIRCUITS
UTR SINGLE-DAY TOURNAMENTS

Detroit Junior Circuit events are single day tournaments. There are three Junior Circuits seasons: spring, summer, and fall. Each season has a number of Qualifier events, leading up to a District Slam with trophies and prizes! Players who play in at least three of the Qualifier events within a season receive priority registration in the District Slam.

This summer we have qualifying events for three separate divisions: Green Ball, UTR 1-2.99 and UTR 3-4.99. The Detroit Jr. Circuits District Slam for summer will be held at Wessen Indoor Tennis Club on August 30. These single-day tournaments are an easy way to establish and boost your UTR rating! Plus, Junior Circuits events are fun, with medals awarded at Qualifiers and $$ gift cards and trophies at the District Slam!

All Junior Circuits events are coed singles. First-round matches will begin as early as 3:00 PM indoors, at Wessen Indoor Tennis Club,
