Federação Portuguesa de Ténis (FPT)
The tennis federation in Portugal · Portuguese Tennis Federation
The FPT is Portugal's national governing body for tennis, working through regional 'associações' (member associations) that it lists on its site. It publishes national rankings (master and weekly) and a club directory through a third-party tiesports.com platform, runs the Campeonatos Internacionais de Portugal-descended national competition structure and Portugal's Davis Cup/Billie Jean King Cup teams. It was officially constituted on 16 March 1925 as the Federação Portuguesa de Lawn-Tennis, growing out of national championships that had already been held since 1902 at the Sporting Club de Cascais; without a national federation, Portuguese players could not compete internationally, which was the direct reason for its founding.
