Nominations announced for 2013 BNP Paribas World Team Cup wheelchair tennis event  |

The ITF has announced the nominations for the 2013 BNP Paribas World Team Cup wheelchair tennis event at the Club Ali Bey Manavgat in Antalya, Turkey on 20-26 May. Netherlands is defending its women’s and junior titles, while France is the defending men’s champion and Israel the defending quad champion.

 

A total of 52 teams from 28 countries are contesting five events: men’s World Group (12 nations), men’s World Group 2 (12 nations), women’s World Group (12 nations), quad event (8 teams) and junior event (8 teams). Regional qualifying events were held in Kenya, Turkey and USA, with men’s teams from Canada, Greece and Nigeria, and women’s teams from South Africa and Spain joining the direct entries and wild cards.

 

The World Team Cup is the ITF’s flagship wheelchair tennis event, often referred to as the Davis and Fed Cups of wheelchair tennis. The initial event took place in California in 1985 involving six men’s teams. The women’s competition began the following year, with quad and junior events introduced in 1998 and 2000 respectively. The ITF introduced regional qualifying for the men’s and women’s events in 2012.
