The USTA League Tennis Mixed Doubles program allows men and women to play together on a team, even if there is a small difference between their levels of play.
- Flights are organized based on NTRP ratings.
- Teams are made up of a minimum of 6 players and maximum of 15.
- Each match consists of 3 courts of doubles.
- Local winners can compete not only at the State and Sectional Level, but also at the National Championships!
- A team number provided by WWTA is required to register a team. See calendar for this and other important dates.
- This league does count into your NTRP rating.
Contact the USTA Adult League Coordinator, Carol Cooke, for more information.
