Welcome to the Home Page of  the

Charleston  Area  Ladies'  Tennis  Association

CALTA is a nonprofit, volunteer-run organization. 

CALTA's mission is to:  1) promote women's tennis in the Charleston Area; 

2) provide a venue for fair play, good sportsmanship and competitive doubles tennis at different levels of ability;

3) identify junior women's tennis needs in the Charleston Area and apply CALTA's

available resources in support of them. (CALTA Charter, art. IV)

 

  In our 2009-2010 season, which started on August 25,

CALTA currently has 765 dues-paying members

on 57 teams from 20 tennis centers in the Charleston area.

New members can be added at any time during the season.

Team Rosters

Additions/changes to rosters can be made at any time during the season

by using the Roster Input Form or by e-sending a note to the board or your coordinator.

Additional dues during the season ($25 per new member) should be sent to the CALTA Treasurer

(with a note indicating the Team and Captain name)

 

A team can have a maximum of five "subs". 

If a sub plays in half of her team's Fall matches, she must pay full

CALTA dues in January if she will continue to play in the Spring.

 

 Dues are not transferable from one member to another -- but, if a dues-paying member

transfers to another team, she does not have to pay dues again.

For the rule governing transfer of players between teams, see Rule II.

Captains, when you submit a request to add to your team a player who is transferring

from another team, please indicate the team the player is transferring FROM.

Annual Luncheon

 

On May 12, 2009, our 2008-2009 season officially ended -- as always, with lots of good food, fellowship

and "CALTA spirit" -- at our gala luncheon, attended by 445 of our members.

 

Click here to view our Luncheon Photo Album

 

Always the high point of the luncheon, the raffle (over 100 items!) to raise funds for

CALTA's Junior Recognition Program was a huge success -- the best ever.

 

During this current '09-'10 season, the Board is planning a very

special celebration luncheon in May 2010

for CALTA's 10th anniversary year !
