The Boston Lobsters are New England's Mylan World TeamTennis presented by GEICO (Mylan WTT) tennis team based in Manchester by the Sea Massachusetts.
The Boston Lobsters team originally joined the Mylan WTT league in 1974 and competed until 1978. Robert Kraft of the New England Patriots owned the team during these four years.
In 2005, local Boston businessman Bahar Uttam relaunched the team. Since then, the Lobsters have made the Mylan WTT league's playoffs four times and Uttam continues to play a vibrant role in the greater North Shore of Massachusetts communities.
