Update: The original post on 5/21 listed Tucson as a site for several events, but I have learned that due to a change in the court resurfacing schedule there, it is no longer going to be used and Oklahoma City is in instead. Look for Tucson to be used in the future though.
I've updated everything below to reflect this on the understanding it is a straight swap. Note, as I update this the Nationals page does still list Tucson but I'm told the change is imminent.
It took a little longer than usual, but the USTA League Nationals schedule is now available for the 2022 events.
The facilities/sites used for 2022 are similar to 2021, but a bit different. Oklahoma City is out, and Tucson is in. Oklahoma City is back in as noted above.
- Scottsdale, AZ - Scottsdale Ranch Park
- Surprise, AZ - Surprise Tennis and Racquet Complex
Tucson, AZ - El Conquistador Resort- Oklahoma City, OK - OKC Tennis Center
- Orlando, FL - USTA National Campus
The schedule remains roughly October thru mid-November and events are three days from Friday thru Sunday. The schedule does have more 40 & Over and 55 & Over events earlier in October than recent years and and 18 & Over event later in October which hasn't happened recently. A few events are at the same location as last year, these have an * below.
Here is the full schedule.

- Surprise - 40 & Over Mixed 7.0/8.0*
- Orlando - 40 & Over Mixed 6.0/9.0*
The Phoenix area is again the focal point for Nationals with at least one event being held there every weekend and 10 of the 17 are there. And Arizona hosts 13 of the 17.
Thankfully the USTA is not experimenting with other sites that may have weather issues as they did a few years ago and is sticking with the reliable good weather that Arizona provides. Nothing is guaranteed, but the percentages are better in Arizona than Texas, Alabama, or South Florida.
Let's hope USTA League remains on schedule and gets played and the above schedule can happen. Good luck to all those teams with aspirations of making it to Nationals!
