MEET ALEX LEE.

In early April, The USTA Missouri Valley Board of Directors confirmed Wichita’s Alex Lee as the new board president. Lee was previously serving as first vice president under Steve Henry. Lee moved into the role after Steve’s untimely passing.

He has served on the board of directors since 2005 and has been a tireless advocate for tennis throughout his tenure. He has also spent more than 15 years serving on USTA National committees, including currently serving on the Collegiate Pathway Committee.

Lee is also still very active within the Wichita tennis community. He is the Executive Director of the McAdams National Junior Tennis & Learning (NJTL) chapter in Wichita. He also is the Head Men’s Tennis Coach at Friends University. He is a PTR Certified Professional and a USPTA Certified Elite Professional and has more than 30 years of teaching and playing experience, dating back to his time playing on the men’s tennis team at the University of Arkansas-Pine Bluff.
