Effective from 13 September 2026 The following are the current Tennis Sydney Sunday Social player gradings. Gradings are reviewed in accordance with our Sunday Social Player Grading Policy, using current UTR and GLTA ratings where available, together with other relevant playing information where appropriate.

This table is designed to help the Tennis Sydney committee grade players without reliable UTR or GLTA ratings. Use the checkboxes in each row to mark observed capability. All levels are based on doubles performance and rankings. 🔴 Red GLTA: Open | UTR: 7.0+ | ITN: 1–2 Serve ☐ First serve is a weapon; high pace, placement, and spin.

Grading Methodology 1. Objective Data First Where available, a player’s UTR or GLTA ranking will be the primary determinant of their grade using the below matrix, adopted from the GLTA. Socia

Firstly, it's great to see so many of you are passionate about your tennis and your UTR. However, we'd be disappointed if members chose to miss out on what should be a fun, competitive and uni

Over the past year, a number of Tennis Sydney members have asked for more opportunities to play UTR-rated matches. We also use UTR Ratings as the primary determinant for Sunday social gradings, helping us create more balanced groups and better tennis experiences across the club.

With that in mind, we wanted to explain how UTR works, what affects your rating, and why more U
