Team captains and players are responsible for understanding the rules that govern our leagues. Each local league area has a set of rules for league play, however USTA League is largely built on the National and Sectional regulations. You can find all of that information here.

League Information
Every league area runs programming differently. Here is all of the information you need to know about playing in the Coachella Valley League.
League Offerings

In the Coachella Valley, leagues normally run January through May and break for the warmer months. Play resumes in mid-October and runs through mid-December.
A USTA membership and a rating are required for most league play. A USTA membership costs around $45 per year and each league costs $30. Team captains only pay $3. Most leagues are played during the week in the Coachella Valley, but weekend play is also offered. If you are interested in a league below, please contact us and we will work to find you a team.
