These have been some very special days with our first men’s tennis team. This year 2021 we have again competed in the Spanish team championship, we have done so in the highest category, in a special post-pandemic edition. A total of 10 clubs have taken part in this state competition held at the Cercle Sabadellès 1856.

On this occasion we formed a very Tarragona team, the home team, David Jordà, the active reference player in the province Edu Esteve and the most important player in the history of the province Albert Montañés . Accompanied by two good active rackets like those of Viktor Galovic and Marco Bortoli . In addition, two classics of the entity, Sergio Gutiérrez and Pablo Martin, were part of the team. Marc Mas as sub-captain and Àlex López as captain were responsible for the management of the team.

In the first round of the competition we beat a young CT Barcino of great quality. The experience and ease of ours to play the doubles, made us take a significant final victory by 4/3. In this way we achieved the goal of permanence. In the quarterfinals we fell against the top seed (1), a Real Murcia Tennis Club 1919 that ended as runner-up by losing the final against CT Valencia.
