Where does the name
Indian Summer League come from?
Indian summer is a name given to a period of sunny, warm
weather in autumn, not long before winter. Usually occurring after
the first frost, Indian summer can be in September, October, or
November in the northern hemisphere.
When I was a teenager ( I started at age 14) the local park
(Highland
Park in East New York ,Brooklyn) ran the Indian Summer
Tournament in the fall. After a summer of playing team and
eventually tournament tennis ( going to Nationals 3 times), this was
a refreshing time of year to play.
I developed the Indian Summer League from those memories.
