The Gainesville-Ocala Women’s Tennis League (GOWTL) is popularly known as the “Women’s Day League.”  It was formed to promote competitive women’s tennis in North Central Florida. Membership in USTA is not a requirement.

Divisions within this organization are based on NTRP (National Tennis Rating Program) ratings at the following levels: 2.5; 3.0; 3.5; 4.0; and 4.5/5.0. For the 2013-2014 season, a pilot “Legacy” Division is being tried out (players 55 yrs or over). Currently, teams at the 2.5 level have matches on Friday mornings, teams at the 3.0 level play on Wednesday mornings; those at the 3.5 level play on Thursday mornings; the 4.0 and 4.5/5.0 levels play on Tuesday mornings, and the Legacy Division on Mondays.  The season runs from September to April or early May, depending on the number of teams at each level.

This year, there is a new Day League website, which allows online registration, score entry, etc. Go towww.gowtl.com for more information.
