How the league works

• This is a co-ed, team-based doubles league for players ages 18+.
• Each week, your team faces another team in round-robin matchups.
• A team matchup includes three doubles matches, with each person playing for 1 hour.
• USTA will provide the balls so all you need to bring is your racquet.
• The focus is fun, fitness, and friendly competition!
