SC PRIVATE CLUB INVITATIONAL
The South Carolina Private Club invitational is a tournament we created in order to provide tennis players in South Carolina another opportunity to compete as a team. This team competition allows players to represent their club around other clubs from SC. We want this event to become a staple on the calendar and hope that it grows each year and that it will move from club to club until we cover all parts of the state. Welcome to the very first SC Private Club Invitational!
