Tennis League in Maryland
ABTL is expanding to Maryland - bringing affordable, flexible recreational tennis to Columbia, Laurel, and beyond
ABTL Tennis Is Coming to Maryland
ABTL (ACE Bandage Tennis League) has been the home of recreational tennis in Nebraska since 1999. After 27+ years of building thriving tennis communities in Lincoln and Omaha - with 2203+ active players, 290+ seasons completed, and 40,000+ matches played - we're ready to bring the same proven format to Maryland.
Our first Maryland locations are Columbia and Laurel, two communities with strong tennis cultures and great public courts. We're launching with singles leagues and plan to grow based on player interest. The same flex scheduling, skill-based divisions, and unbeatable pricing that made ABTL successful in Nebraska are coming to the Maryland tennis scene.

The same simple format that's worked in Nebraska for 27+ years.
1. Register Online

2. Get Placed
You'll be grouped with players at your NTRP skill level. Fair matchups mean every match is competitive and enjoyable.
3. Schedule Flexibly
Contact your opponent and agree on a time and court. Each round gives you a 2-week window - no fixed match nights.

Play best-of-3-set matches, report scores online, and watch your standings update in real time. 8+ matches per season.
Why Maryland Needs ABTL
Maryland has the players and the courts. ABTL brings the league.

$30 per season for 8+ competitive matches, online standings, and a real league experience. No club membership required, no court fees, no hidden costs. Good luck finding that anywhere in Maryland.
Made for Busy Lives
The DMV area is busy. ABTL's flex scheduling means you never have to choose between a match and a meeting, a family dinner, or a weekend trip. Play when your life allows it.
Proven Track Record
This isn't an experiment. ABTL has been running successful leagues since 1999 with 290+ completed seasons. We know how to organize tennis leagues that players love and come back to year after year.
