Common questions

What is a USTA Level 1 tournament?

National Championships. The USTA National Championships.

How many points is a Level 1 worth?

Main-draw points go by the round reached: the champion earns 3,000, the finalist 2,400, a semifinalist 1,800 and a quarterfinalist 1,110. The round a player starts in earns nothing, so losing the first match earns nothing from the main draw. Each consolation round won adds 105.

How should we get ready for a Level 1?

Start 4 weeks out. Coach Ace's free Level 1 guide covers what the day looks like, what to pack, the mental game, and food and water, with a 4-week plan.

More for parents: the points your junior can earn at each level, and how rankings work and how juniors get into tournaments.
