The Round Robins are held every Saturday and Sunday, more popular during the regular season. The level of play increases throughout the morning, with 3.0 starting at 9am and transitioning to 3.5 and then by 10:30am it's 4.5/5.0+. Feel free to stop by and check it out!
The Fogeys play 3 times a week: Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 8am. Marco coordiates each session to make sure there are 6 people available. It is oversubscribed, so if you do want to join perhaps we can find more people and we can create additional groups. Please stop by the courts and meet the players.
