A huge shout-out to Mary Salsich who is hosting her last Wash Park Tennis Club social tonight at Meadowcreek. Mary has served on the board since 2014 and will be sorely missed. We thank Mary for her years of dedication and service to the club and community. Wishing you all the best, Mary!

Congratulations to the Men’s 4.0 USTA Adult 18 & Over Wash Park Orange team who participated in Sectionals in Salt Lake City, Utah on August 9-11.
"We ended up 1-2 with a win over Idaho & a really close loss to Nevada on Friday, and then a blow out by Utah (likely winners of nationals again) on Saturday. We had a couple guys that wanted to play singles against Utah, but the doubles lines were all drawn out of a hat by the USTA official. We figured we'd have some fun with it since we were out of contention and the Utah team was very good (example: their D1 team had been partners in high school and won a 6a state championship in 2018)".
Members include: Matt Whitmer, Jake Hugenberg, Tim Fitz, Chris McCarthy, Brandon Kalusa, Greg Hamilton (c), Jack Stanley, Chad Whitmer, Lionel Pomerantz, Ryan MacDowell, Tyler Hagnauer, Justin Weigle.
Congratulations to the Women’s 3.5 USTA Adult 40 & Over Wash Park Red team on a great league season that qualified them to participate in the District Championships held in Denver on August 16-18.
Members include: Suzette Emerson, Rebecca Gart, Sue Hickey, Sanda McMillan, Alison Mizer, Kim Allen, Deb Alpert, Minou Cramer, Bethany Sheldon.

WP SILVER – Women's 3.5 (Team photo below)
WP GREEN – Women's 4.5
FLIGHT PLAYOFFS
ADVANCED TO SECTIONALS, AUG 9-11
WP ORANGE – Men's 4.0
Our men's 4.0 team - WP Orange - is heading to Salt Lake City to compete against other top teams after winning districts in Denver! According to captain Greg Hamilton, it was a bit of a roller coaster season. "We lost our first week of league, so it wasn't looking like we'd get any post season play. Then, the team that beat us finally picked up a loss in week six which opened the door for us to move into first, and then we had some clutch wins in the post-season." Congratulations to Greg, Tim Fitz (co-captain), Kirk Arza, Tyler Hagnauer, Matt Whitmer, Brandon Kalusa, Jake Hugenberg, Ryan MacDowell, Chad Whitmer, Andrew Goodwillie, Lionel Pomerantz, Christopher McCarthy, Justin Weigle and Jack Stanley. Way to represent!

Starting in the 2024 Championship year, USTA National will be using a five line format for Adult 40 & over leagues - 1 Singles, 4- Doubles - at all 2024 Adult 40 & Over National Championships.
For the 2024 Championship year, the USTA Intermountain Adult Programs Committee has voted that the format for all 2024 USTA League Adult 40 & Over Sectional Championships will remain at 4 lines- 1 singles 3 doubles.
The USTA Intermountain Adult Programs Committee looked at many factors when making our decision including facility availability, player feedback, district and coordinators feedback and we feel at this time the 4 court format is the best option for our 2024 Adult 40 & Over Sectional Championships.

Did you know that the Wash Park Tennis Club is run entirely by an all-volunteer board?
The ALL VOLUNTEER WPTC Board members oversee the operations, activities and events the club has put on over the past 55 years. Without folks volunteering to be on the board, the club would have to stop providing various opportunities to play tennis. If you're ready to step up and be part of a tennis organization beloved by the Denver tennis community, there are currently 4 open positions that need to be filled as soon as possible.
