Women's Intramural Tennis

Anyone interested in participating in womens intramural tennis this fall, please email lisajaskierski_2009@depauw.edu

We will most likely have both singles and doubles, you can be in just one or both. If you are interested in playing doubles, please list your partners name in the email. The way this usually works is you get emailed the name of the person, and their email address, that you are playing for that "round" and usually have 5-10 days to get in contact with them and set up a date and time for your match. You should try to play a best of 3 match, with each set being the first to 7 wins. However, if time does not allow, you can play a shorter match. Once the match it played, the scores then need to be emailed to me & your opponent for the following round to be sent out.

All levels of experience are more than welcome to play!
