There are two ways to participate in TIA’s UTR Match Play program: through session enrollment or on a “Pay & Play” basis. Both registration options, along with the withdrawal, cancellation, and no-show policies, are outlined below.
For those enrolled for match play for the full indoor season, please review the steps below as there is an extra step are required to secure your spot in the weekly UTR match play program. Being enrolled in TIA match play does not automatically register you for the UTR weekly matches. You must follow the steps below to be included in the draw.
- Weekly Registration Email: You will receive an email the weekend before the UTR event with a link and password, reminding you to register. Please note that even if you’re enrolled in the TIA UTR program, it is the responsibility of the parent/player to complete the registration on the UTR website for that match play event.
- UTR Registration Deadline: To be included in the draw, you must register for the event on UTR’s website by Thursday at 4 PM before the weekend match play. The draw will be posted on the Friday before the event.
- Check the UTR Event Page for Scheduled Match: Once the draw is posted, you will receive an email via UTR Messenger reminding you to check the UTR event page for your scheduled match and opponent. Visit the TIA Event Home Page for details.
35 Week Pricing: Scaled pricing is offered for match play based on the number of junior group and/or private lesson enrollments. There are NO make-ups for match play; match play enrollments submitted after session start date are pro rated.

For players who prefer not to commit to match play for the entire indoor season, there is an option to purchase a 10-pack or opt for a one-time “Pay & Play.”
- “CLICK HERE” to register and submit payment to begin the FIRST STEP in the registration process. This fee includes court fees, tennis balls and walking director fee.

Please do not share the password with friends or family as this will bypass our “Pay As You Go” procedures for match play and those players will not be able to participate in the program. (Separately, if you do not have a UTR Power Player Subscription, there is an additional fee to be paid directly to UTR when you sign up for this event.)

Any player who withdraws, cancels, or is a no-show for Match Play after the draw is posted will receive a “walkover” on their UTR profile, with no option for a make-up or credit. While this does not impact their UTR rating, multiple walkovers can negatively reflect on their record. This policy is in place to address frequent withdrawals after the draw is posted.
If a player withdraws, their opponent will be notified by email and phone that the match is canceled. If a player is a no-show, no match will take place that evening.
In both cases, players whose opponents cancel, withdraw, or fail to show should contact our UTR Match Play Director, Lukas Michenka, to receive a credit for a future Sunday UTR Match Play event. Those enrolled weekly will have the opportunity to play two matches in a future event.
We kindly ask parents and players to register responsibly. If you have other commitments, please refrain from registering—however, if you become available, feel free to email us, and we will do our best to arrange a match. This ensures a consistently competitive playing experience for everyone.
