pathway for juniors
It's all about creating opportunities. Swiss juniors lack competition of similar age and playing level, encounter and chance to compare with their international peers. University tennis centres should partially solve these issues by providing top local U16-U18 juniors with opportunity to compete / train with university team players on regular basis and for free!
GETTING READY for 2022
The year 2022 will be a turning point for university tennis in Switzerland. We expect to have 2-3 strong University teams from Switzerland which will be joined by one top university team from each of the surrounding countries.
TENNIS & HOCKEY HAVE LOTS IN COMMON
SUTA (Swiss University Tennis Association) is also looking forward to partnering with EUHL (European University Hockey Association).
