Become a Certified Official
Certified officials are involved in the game of tennis in a variety of roles, ranging from overseeing local junior and adult tournaments to collegiate events to officiating on court at professional tournaments like the US Open.
If you are interested in becoming a certified tennis official, we'd love to have you! Individuals must be USTA Members, complete the USTA Background Screening and Safeplay video process, then take an online course and contact their local chairperson to do some shadowing!
If you have any questions, please contact State Officials Chairperson Billy Gip Clark at bgipclark@gmail.com or call William Foreman at the USTA Mississippi office at 601-981-4421.
