# Portuguese Tennis Federation

## History

Without an organization to support a participation at the Davis Cup, a group of players met at Automóvel Club de Portugal headquarters in 1924 to solve the situation. In result, the Lawn Tennis Portuguese Federation was founded on 16 March 1925, with Guilherme Pinto Basto serving as its first President. The first Portuguese Davis Cup team would play later that year. However, it would not be until 1963 under President Herédia that Portugal would have a regular representation at the competition.
