Players competing in Australia need a Competitive Player Profile to simplify the process of entering endorsed Events and Leagues. So, whether you play for fun at your local club or professionally on the global circuit, your Competitive Player Profile will ensure you receive the best playing experience for your level.
To complete your Competitive Player Profile, simply register for a Tennis ID and activate your UTR Rating.
Once registered via Match Centre for your Tennis ID, you can activate your UTR Rating from your player dashboard by linking your Tennis ID with Universal Tennis.
Step 1: How do I register for a Tennis ID?

On the sign up page, if the applicant is less than 15 years of age additional fields will appear, requiring the need for a parent/guardian email to complete the registration process.
