The Boston Lobsters brought World Team Tennis action to the Walter Brown Arena at Boston University for five summers between 1974 and 1978. (The Lobs also played occasional matches at the Hartford Civic Center). The co-ed league brought major international stars to Boston for competitions that fell somewhere in between the intensity of Grand Slam competition and the half-speed camaraderie of exhibition play. The Lobsters own big name was Martina Navratilova, who elevated the Lobsters to one of the league’s best clubs in 1977 and 1978. Future New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft also made his first foray in pro sports investing with his ownership of the Lobs from 1975 through 1978.
