The ITA is pleased to announce the establishment of the ITA Student-Athlete Council. The ITA Student-Athlete Council is a committee of student-athletes who play college tennis assembled to provide insights regarding the sport with a special emphasis on the student-athlete experience. The goals of this committee are as follows:
- Present a student-athlete voice within the Intercollegiate Tennis Association (ITA)
- Offer input regarding matters pertaining to the sport, particularly issues impacting the lives of student-athletes
- Work to enhance the student-athlete experience specific to college tennis across all divisions
- Invest in the leaders of tomorrow by creating leadership and professional development opportunities
The inaugural ITA Student-Athlete Council will serve during the 2023-24 academic year, with first-round applications opening next Monday, May 1, 2023. Teams must be ITA members for the 2023-24 season in order for players to be eligible to serve on the Council.
