Cherokee
Tennis Association offers Mixed Doubles Leagues in the Spring
and Fall. USTA membership is required. A team match will consist
of 3 lines of doubles with a 10 point tie break in lieu of
a third set.
USA
League Tennis Mixed Doubles allows players of different NTRP
levels to play together, encouraging participants to form
teams with their friends, family and co-workers. Players without
a NTRP rating are permitted to self-rate. If a participant
is actively playing in the USTA League Tennis Adult or Senior
Program, then the Mixed Doubles match results do not affect
the person's rating. A player who competes only in the
Mixed Doubles leagues will generate a Mixed Doubles Rating.
The
winners from each level will advance to the State Championship
in August. In order to have a successful season, we need lots
of teams. Please start speaking with everyone you know who
plays at the 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 and 4.5 levels. Encourage
them to form teams, the more the better! If you have a very
large team, consider splitting into two teams. You only need
6 players each week. If you have court availability issues,
we'll work with you! And as always, we'll accommodate anyone
who has Men's/Women's USTA State playoff conflicts during
the season!
