V.I. Tennis Association to Participate in 2019 Davis Cup Zone Competition

The Virgin Islands Tennis Association (VITA) will participate in the 2019 Davis Cup Zone Group III Competition to be held in Costa Rica from June 17-22. Teams expected to participate are the Bahamas, Honduras, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, Cuba, Panama, Antigua and Barbuda, Bermuda, Trinidad and Tobago and the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Players wanting to be considered for the USVI Team need to send a copy of their passport and a brief resume of their current playing status, including current training and competition events. If a tryout is necessary to select the team, it will be held either the weekend of May 10-12 or May 17-19. Players are to indicate which weekend they prefer or if either is acceptable.

A passport and resume are to be sent to Bill McComb at billvi10@hotmail.com and Colin Robertson at robertsoncolin@mac.com no later than April 12.

Players will have to meet both International Tennis Federation (ITF) and V.I. Olympic Committee eligibility requirements.
