The Hoover youth chosen for the team were Morgan Mumper, Gavin Patton, Sam Sasko, Sam Sellers and Jake Wilson.

The team practiced for four weeks in preparation for the event and served the entire tournament weekend. The team was led by Jenny Robb, the junior team state coordinator for the Alabama branch of the United States Tennis Association.
