Houston should be competing for a national title every year in every division but all anyone can focus on is winning city with teams that aren't even strong enough to win at sectionals. We need to get all these good players on one team not get them disqualified. Our league tennis is based on socialist ideals, every team has to be equal.

I've been playing in the adult league since I was 16. Way back then it was ATL and juniors were allowed. Since I couldn't afford or get to out of town tournaments easily my best experience to improve my game was league every week against 4.5/5.0 level league guys. As long as players are are on the same level then 16-over is ok with me.

How lame would we be if we toss all the good players out of our best teams before they go on to compete in state? Whoever wins the 4.0 league is not really a 4.0. The 4.5 winners are better than 4.5. Ditto the 5.0 league. This is just a fact of life.If you can't compete against the good 4.5 players perhaps 4.5 is not for you.
