Singles Ladder
Ready to jump into some fun, competitive singles play? Our Singles Ladder is hosted through the USTAFlex app—making it easy to get matched and get on the court.
Simply sign up and pay in the app, then choose how many matches you’d like to play (0–2 every two weeks). You’ll be paired with an opponent, and the two of you can coordinate a match time that works best.
After you play, just enter your score right in the app. It’s simple, flexible, and a great way to stay active and improve your game.
