Ever wonder how to get the best players in the world to your hometown? IRT events are the largest and most exciting tournaments in the sport because the energy extends from the top (very approachable) pros to local players, families, and fans as they watch and mingle in and around the courts. The pro/am format allows amateurs to have the chance to play different skill and age divisions, or take on the guys at the top.
The benefits last long after IRT players dive, spring, and lunge for ball speeds nearing 200 miles per hour, and build member retention, sponsor benefits, and marketing opportunities. Whether you’re an event director who wants to grow participation and add excitement to your event, a club owner looking to add marketing and promotional value to your business, or a first-timer host, the IRT can help. The IRT partners with the event director to provide staff to manage the entire process and event from fundraising, developing a logo, to onsite assistance during the event.
