Affordable, UTR-sanctioned tennis and pickleball tournaments in Northern Virginia: real competition, real ratings, without the $100+ entry fees.
A, B, and C skill draws, a $650 prize pool, and a UTR-sanctioned result on your record.
Entry fees are a fraction of typical tournament costs. Most regional events charge $100+.
Next Gen Tournaments started with a simple frustration: competitive tennis and pickleball in Northern Virginia cost too much to play regularly. A local player founded NGT to fix that, running real, UTR-sanctioned events at a price that doesn't gatekeep who gets to compete.
Every match counts toward your UTR. Every draw is built to match your level, not overwhelm it. And every dollar of entry goes back into keeping the events sharp: good courts, fair brackets, and a $650 prize pool that makes winning worth it.
Two tournaments in, the mission hasn't changed: affordable, competitive, local tennis and pickleball for every skill level.
"Play real matches, build a real rating, without paying a premium to do it."
- Next Gen Tournaments, founding principle
NGT runs sanctioned tennis and open-format pickleball: same local venues, same affordable entry, same competitive standard.
A quick look at how the first two Next Gen tournaments played out.

RegisterUTR (Universal Tennis Rating) is the global standard for measuring competitive tennis level: one number, built from real match results, recognized by college coaches and recruiters nationwide.
As an official UTR-sanctioned partner, every Next Gen match feeds directly into that rating. You don't need to travel or pay premium entry fees to build a résumé that recruiters trust. You can build it at home, in Vienna, for a fraction of the cost.
College coaches use UTR to evaluate and recruit players. A sanctioned result carries real weight.
No self-reporting. Your rating reflects who you actually played and how those matches went.
Sanctioned, ratable competition without the travel budget of a regional or national event.
*Total prize pool per event, distributed to top finishers across A, B, and C draws. Full breakdown announced at check-in.
