Tuesday - Doubles

The season will be organized into consecutive tournaments, each lasting from 4 to 6 weeks.  We can accommodate up to 14 players per tournament.

For each tournament, teams will be formed randomly while trying to adhere to the following general principles:

  • Pair experienced players will less experienced players

  • Pair players who have not played together this season

If you’d like to be exempted from any of these guidelines please let Skye Brasher or Roger Tawa know.
