CTC Committee meets in Barcelona

Coinciding with the celebration of the ATP Barcelona Open Banc Sabadell this week, the President of the Centenary Tennis Clubs Association and RCTB-1899 Jordi Cambra met with the CTC’s Committee of Management.

Among the topics on the meeting’s agenda was the announcement of the 2022 competition calendar, which highlights a return to pre-pandemic levels of activity. Two events already confirmed include the CTC’s flagship event – the Winners Group – which is due to be held in Athens. The traditional meeting between English and Irish clubs will take place in Roehampton on August 20.

The members of the committee also had the opportunity to assess the topics of the future colloquiums between the member clubs, an initiative that emerged during the pandemic that has turned out to be highly valued by the different clubs.

The meeting was attended, in person and online, by Petr Simunek, CTC Vice President & I.CTLK Prague, Lars Myhrman of Kung LTK (online), Guido Shulz of Rot Weiss Berlin (online), Donald Macleod of Cumberland LTC (online), Philippe Neve of Royal Leopold Club (online), Pedro Navedo of RST La Magdalena, Marco Gilardelli, CTC Counselor and the General Secretary of the Association, Berta Tintore.

Founded in 1996 by eight European clubs, the CTC has 79 clubs on four continents. Affiliated to the European Federation and recognized by the ITF, the Association has grown exponentially in recent years.
