TELL US WHAT YOU THOUGHT ABOUT THE TOURNAMENT!
Thank you for participating in the City of Peachtree Corners Peach State Junior Closed Championships! We so enjoyed this past week and we hope you did, as well. We are looking forward to next year, and we need your feedback. One Love Tennis had a 1-year bid for the Peach State and will have to submit another bid for a multi-year contract. It would be great if you could let the USTA Selection Committee know how you felt about the tournament by completing their survey (link included). Thanks, and we'll see you at another One Love Tennis event!
