California tennis tournaments, open now

Who runs tennis in California

Southern California is run by USTA Southern California, based in Santa Ana, which covers the Central Coast to San Diego and inland to the Inland Empire and the Coachella Valley. The north is run by USTA Northern California, based in Alameda, which also serves northwest Nevada. In the USTA's 2025 participation report, Southern California had the highest participation rate of any section in 2024, at 10.1 percent, and about 2.2 million players. Northern California was close behind at 9.7 percent and about 1.4 million players. The same report puts Palm Springs and the San Francisco, Oakland and San Jose area in the top five U.S. metros for tennis search interest.

How tournaments work here

Juniors in both sections move from entry-level events, such as Junior Circuit and Level 7, toward Level 6 and Level 5 as they collect results. Because the two sections publish separately, a family near the line between them, around the Central Coast or the Central Valley, can miss good events by searching only one. RallyFlick searches by distance, not by section, so both show up. Adult players will find age-group tournaments and NTRP-level draws in every major metro, plus large events in the desert during the spring.

Seasons and weather

Coastal California plays all year. Inland valleys get very hot in summer, so events there start early. Northern California can lose some winter weekends to rain. March brings the BNP Paribas Open to Indian Wells, and the desert hosts a busy stretch of amateur events through the cooler months.

Questions

Which USTA section am I in?

If you live from San Luis Obispo County south, including Bakersfield, the Inland Empire and the Coachella Valley, you are generally in USTA Southern California. North of that, you are in USTA Northern California. RallyFlick searches by distance, so the section line does not hide events from you.

Are California junior events crowded?

Popular draws in Los Angeles, Orange County, San Diego and the Bay Area can fill before the deadline. RallyFlick flags events whose entries close within 7 days, so you can register before a draw fills.

Does RallyFlick cover adult players in California?

Yes. Adult 18 and over and 40 and over players get the same Monday email, with age-group events near their ZIP.

Other states: Florida · Texas · Georgia · New York · Arizona · North Carolina · Illinois · South Carolina. Or see the national list for this week.
