This year’s Texas Cup (between Dallas, Houston and Austin) will be played on Saturday, June 2 through Sunday, June 3 at LB Houston Tennis Center in Dallas.
 
The festivities start off Friday night (June 1), from 7 PM to 9 PM, at Woody’s Sports and Video Bar. Please try to attend this gathering at Woody’s as they are a great supporter of OLTA.
 
Saturday Texas Cup play at LB Houston starts at 8 AM sharp the next day. The banquet will be Saturday evening. There will be no general OLTA sessions on Sunday, June 3 as Texas Cup will have the courts.
 
We are working on a contract for our host hotel and banquet facility; it will most likely be the Aloft Hotel in Irving. More specific information will be forthcoming on this in the near future.
 
All OLTA Texas Cup participants will be required to buy a team t-shirt. The prices are $15/$5/$10 for corresponding $45/full-year/half-year membership levels. The money raised from t-shirt sales will go into OLTA’s general fund. The t-shirts are available now; please see President Sance for your t-shirt today.
 
If you know any former members of OLTA, please let them know about this event coming up. We will send emails to those we have contact information for, but contact information for a lot of former members is not available.
 
Please remember – you must be a paid member of OLTA to be eligible to participate in Texas Cup.
 
Rules and initial singles and doubles ladders have been posted on the OLTA website. The link can be seen on the right under “Activities” after you log in.
 
If you have any questions or concerns, please direct your emails to [email protected] or talk to the Texas Cup Captain (President Sance).

Thanks to all that visited OLTA last night at Woody’s, and came out for some great weather at LB Houston today. We had over 10 courts enjoying the sunshine, mild temperatures and batting the ball around.

The pizza was perfect, lots of people came away with LOTS of fun prizes, and our President modeled the OLTA club t-shirt. The shirt is available for $5 (when you pay for a year membership), $10 (when you pay for a 1/2 year membership) or $15 (when you pay for at the $45 membership level).

Don’t forget: the first regular season session is this Tuesday, starting at 6 PM at LB Houston. The week concludes with another evening session on Friday, then bright and early at 9 AM on Sunday is general play.

See you on the courts!
