ITF World Team Championships

The International Tennis Federation (ITF) have been involved in running international team championships for veteran players since 1958 and the success of these early events led to the establishment of the World Team Championships. The event offers a full range of competitions for players of 35+ up through to Men aged 80 and over and Ladies aged 75 and over. These nineteen age categories have been pooled into two distinct groups younger Veterans (Seniors) between the ages of 35 -55 and older Veterans (Super-Seniors) aged between 60 and upwards.
