 2008 Men’s and Women’s Winter Doubles Leagues 
Sponsored by the Walnut Creek Racquet Club (WCRC), the 2008 Mixed Doubles League will be held September 1st - January 4th. This is the WCRC's inagural Mixed Doubles league and we hope it will be as sucessful as our Singles and Regular Doubles leagues. The leagues have been one of the true success stories in NorCal tennis, starting with 48 players in 1998 and growing to include several hundred participants in 2008.

We will continue to offer on-line scoring and real-time updated standings for all four (4) divisions. Don't forget that the league registration fee includes 12 regular season doubles matches, a league gift and may include an end of the season tournament dependent upon weather and court scheduling.
