Tennis players from across the country — as well as some international competitors — will be swinging away during the 2010 Peach Tennis Tournament over Labor Day weekend, hoping to bring home hardware in the way of trophies.
Sponsored by the Atlanta Team Tennis Association, the city’s LGBT tennis league, the Peach is one of the bigger tournaments in the Gay & Lesbian Tennis Alliance circuit, says Bill Bradley, ATTA’s director of tournaments. The GLTA incorporates LGBT tournaments across the world, with 38 in the U.S. this year and 22 in other parts of the world.
The Peach stands out from other tournaments in the circuit for several reasons, including the high volume of female participants.
