For Nearly 100 years,

the United States Professional Tennis Association (USPTA) has been the leading organization for tennis professionals. As racquet sports have evolved since our inception in 1927 our organization has also changed to meet the diverse needs of those in the industry.

For the next 100 years,

the USPTA will continue its journey as the Racquet Sports Professionals Association (RSPA). This transformation reflects our commitment to supporting professionals across all racquet sports, recognizing the diverse and dynamic nature of our industry.

Expanded Resources: Access a wealth of knowledge, tools, and networking opportunities across the entire racquet sports industry.
Innovation-Driven Education: Stay ahead of the curve with cutting-edge training programs that blend traditional wisdom with modern techniques.

We've Changed More Than Just Our Name

The transition to RSPA is more than a rebranding – it's a recommitment to our core identity:

Continuous Improvement: We're dedicated to helping you grow and adapt in an ever-changing industry.
Relational Focus: Building strong, supportive relationships within our community remains at the heart of what we do.
Unity: We're bringing together professionals from all racquet sports under one inclusive umbrella.
Leaving It All on the Court: Our passion for excellence drives everything we do, both on and off the court.

While there may be easier paths to certification, the RSPA offers something more valuable – a lifelong partnership in your professional journey. We believe that the future of racquet sports requires more than just technical skills. It demands a holistic understanding of the industry, adaptability, and a commitment to service.

Join us as we embark on this exciting new chapter. Together, we'll shape the future of racquet sports, support each other's growth, and continue to share our love for the games that bring us together.

Welcome to the RSPA – where you can turn your passion into a pursuit.

New Website Coming Soon

We're excited to announce that a brand-new RSPA website is currently under construction. This new digital home will reflect our expanded mission and provide enhanced resources for all racquet sports professionals. While we put the finishing touches on our new site, this page will serve as an information hub for our transition from USPTA to RSPA. Stay tuned for the launch of our comprehensive RSPA website, where you'll find even more tools, resources, and opportunities to support your career in racquet sports.
