The Mississippi High School Activities Association announced on April 21 the schedule and locations for the 2026 Individual Tennis Championships, which will take place from April 20 to April 23. The events will be held in Vicksburg and Oxford, with contingency plans in place for weather delays.
The championships are significant as they bring together student-athletes from across various classes to compete in both team and individual events. This provides an opportunity for high school players to showcase their skills at a state level.
According to the released schedule, team competitions will occur on Monday, April 20. Classes 4A, 6A, and 7A matches are scheduled at Vicksburg facilities while classes 1A, 2A, 3A, and 5A will compete in Oxford. Individual competitions are planned for Tuesday and Wednesday, April 21-22. Events include boys singles, girls singles, boys doubles, girls doubles, and mixed doubles across all class divisions.
Participants are required to check in ahead of their scheduled matches each day. Facilities open early each morning—at either six or six-thirty a.m.—to allow time for warmups before play begins. Semifinals and finals rounds are distributed throughout both days at each location according to class schedules provided by organizers.
If inclement weather occurs during the week of competition, Thursday, April 23 has been reserved as a makeup date.
