World Beach Tennis Association (WBTA)

The World Beach Tennis Association (WBTA) is a new, not-for-profit international organization founded in 2025 with the official approval of the International Tennis Federation (ITF).

Led by a board of top professional players - including President Carlos Arruda - the WBTA's mission is to unify, professionalize, and grow beach tennis worldwide for both professionals and amateurs.

As a newly formed global governing body, the WBTA had a strong vision but no existing digital infrastructure. To launch successfully, they needed to build essential structures from scratch:

• A Unified Global System: One platform connecting players, promoters, and fans worldwide from day one.
• Professional Governance Tools: Digital licensing, transparent world rankings, and standardized tournament regulations.
• Operational Credibility: A solid technological foundation to attract private funding, sponsors, and establish legitimacy with the ITF and the global sports community.

The WBTA required a complete digital ecosystem capable of supporting a worldwide sport from its first day of operation.

Tournated was selected as the official technology partner, providing the full digital backbone needed to launch and scale the WBTA.

Key Aspects of the Global Performance:

1. Unified Global Platform
