USRSA Q's

[WhiteSox05CA]

So in order to join the United States Racquet Stringers Association, it only costs a fee of about $109 per year, right? You don't have to be qualified or pass any sort of test right? So what are the benefits then?

Also, what do you have to do to become a "USRSA Ceritfied Stringer" or an MRT- "Master Racquet Technician?"

Go here: http://www.racquettech.com. There is still a web membership available if that suits you.

Being a member of USRSA gives you access to tons of technical information, and if you're staying in the US, you will also get free strings to try out once in a while. They will also send you hard copies of the Stringers' Digest which also has lots of useful info about strings, frames, stringing patterns etc.

I feel that it is best suited to those who truly appreciate the technicalities of tennis and want to transcend beyond just playing the game, and also understanding the dynamics of equipment choices.

If you want to start offering your stringing services at a professional level, then attaining CS or even MRT certifications will be most useful.

Enjoy your tennis.
