More playoffs for USTA League play this weekend - South Carolina, North Carolina, NorCal, Florida, and more

Warm weather states where league play can start early in the year have wrapped up league play and are starting or even continuing playoffs now as teams advance.  Georgia held their States the past couple weekends, and NorCal had Districts a couple weeks ago too.

South Carolina actually got started with 55 & Over and 70 & Over States at the end of April, and had 40 & Over States a couple weeks ago.  They continue this weekend with 18 & Over in Aiken.

The neighbors to the north in North Carolina are a bit behind, but get started with States for 65 & Over this weekend, and then 55 & Over, 18 & Over, and 40 & Over all in June.

The Carolinas and other states in Southern are working towards Sectionals held in July for 18 & Over and 40 & Over.

Northern California continues their 40 & Over with Sectionals this weekend, we'll know quite a few teams headed to Nationals by Sunday night.

Florida gets started this weekend with 55 & Over at the USTA National Campus.  They have the other divisions having Sectionals throughout June and July.

One note on Florida is that it appears they are having their Sectionals run Saturday thru Monday this year, typically most sections run things Friday thru Sunday with a day added before/after if needed.  My guess is this Saturday thru Monday is thought to make it easier on folks by putting the semis/finals when not all teams are playing on the Monday and keeping the busy days on the weekend.

Are you headed to any of these playoffs?  Or when do yours start?
