The categories are: women’s open, men’s open and men’s 40+. The matches will be held on evenings and weekends and a fee of USD 15 per category is charged.

This tournament is sponsored by Pineapple Pete for the third year in a row, for which the club is very grateful. Without the help of our kind, generous and royal sponsor, it would not have been possible to organize an open singles tournament, according to the club’s President, Roeland Zwanikken.
SMTC is located at the Raoul Illidge Sports Complex (across from the St. Maarten Medical Center’s emergency entrance). SMTC has been established in 1988 and has been trying to promote the tennis sport in St. Maarten, through having courts available, organizing tennis pieces of training, and as mentioned above, through the organization of events and tournaments. Additional information can be found on the club’s website (www.sintmaartentennisclub.com) or Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/sintmaartentennisclub/)
We are looking forward to your registrations or attendance to the tournament’s matches!
