Tennis Syria……….
The first
Syrian tennis federation was established in 1953.
During
the
period to follow, the game was featured for its family
nature, and pioneers of the first generation transmitted
this game to their children and friends.
By the early
1970’s , the game affairs were organized within
institutional activities when a decree was issued providing
the incorporation of the general sports federation.
Further the
Syrian tennis federation enrolled as a full member in the
International Tennis Federation (ITF) in 1953 and started
participating in Davis Cup event (DC) in 1986 and
Federation Cup (Fed Cup) in 1994.
Each year
Damascus is hosting 2 ITF juniors weeks in addition to many
national events.
This year 2008
, Syria is hosting for the first time ITF pro-circuit events
under the full sponsorship of Damascus El Muhafaza club .
