Can H4 visa holder be a member of the United States Tennis Association?

Hi,

I am on H4 visa for nearly 5 years. I would like to be a member of the USTA, a non profit tennis organization to further the game in this country. The link to the benefits for individual members is -

Apart from the opportunity to play in the USTA leagues, they mention the opportunity to attain a national ranking. I am only looking to play some recreational tennis. But does this benefit make it illegal for me to join USTA?

Would greatly appreciate your thoughts.

Nothing illegal about this.

Thank you for responding. I forgot to mention, but some USTA tournaments also offer prize money.  I have taken part in non USTA tournaments without prize money , taking care they do not offer any monetary benefits to winners. So, I am assuming if I join USTA, and then take similar care not to participate in prize money USTA tourneys, it should be fine. Can you also validate my understanding?
