The Seattle Tennis Alliance (STA) is dedicated to providing competitive and social tennis activities for all individuals with passion for playing the game in a setting that is inclusive and supportive for all.

Membership is open to players of all skill levels, from beginner to advanced (NTRP 2.0 - 5.0), regardless of age, race, gender or sexual orientation.
The roots of the STA are found in our history of serving the Puget Sound areas gay and lesbian community and its friends. We are the largest tennis organization of its' kind in western Washington.
The STA has evolved over the years but continues to be a catalyst for members to engage and participate in various levels of play and offer unique opportunities to better ones skills and engage in healthy competition.
Programs and events are organized year round including social doubles, team tennis, club and inter-club tournaments, team competitions, happy hours and the annual STA Christmas party. The STA organizes several USTA teams at different levels hosted at various facilities throughout the area.
The STA is unique in that we are not affiliated with a single tennis facility. We have excellent relationships with most facilities in the Seattle area allowing us to run these year round programs for our members. Facilities we play at include Amy Yee Tennis Center, Tennis Center Sand Point, UW/Nordstrom Tennis Center, Robinswood Tennis Center, Boeing Tennis Center and more.
