The third stop on the SoCal Pro Series schedule will be the University of San Diego and the Skip and Cindy Hogan Tennis Center, home of the USD Toreros women’s and men’s teams. Anthony Shirley will serve as tournament director.

In January of 2022, the center went through a complete renovation at the west end of the USD campus boasting a $6.5 million state-of-the-art facility that features a scoreboard, grandstands with chairback seating, and the program’s first-ever clubhouse, which includes a locker room, a lounge, and a study area. The facility also features an athletic training room to service both home and away teams, as well as infrastructure that will allow for live streaming of all home matches.

The Wild Card Committee is made up of the following:

ADDITIONAL EXPECTATIONS OF WILD CARD RECIPIENTS

As a tennis player, receiving a wildcard into 2024 SoCal Pro Series events is an incredible privilege that should not be taken lightly. With this benefit comes the opportunity to not only showcase your skills on the court but also give back to the sport that has given you so much.

By helping others come up behind you and working with USTA Southern California to promote and grow tennis, you can be a part of something much bigger than just yourself. Your contributions can inspire and encourage the next generation of tennis players and help to create a positive and supportive community both on and off the court.

While giving back is not a mandate, it is a suggestion and an expectation in many cases. USTA SoCal may ask you to participate in activities such as media interviews, social media posts, photo shoots, junior camps, junior talks, or exhibitions to help promote and grow tennis. These opportunities are not only a chance to showcase your skills but also to give back to the sport and help it continue to thrive.

So let us all embrace the opportunity to give back to our great sport of tennis, to help those coming up behind us, and to work with USTA SoCal to promote and grow tennis. Let us remember that wildcards are an opportunity, and with the privilege comes responsibility. Let us use this to make a positive impact and leave a lasting legacy in the sport that we all love.
