No, you don't. Most of our events are for adult players.

What is multi-generational play?
Multi-generational play involves youth 13 years old and under paired with adults with a minimum 20 year age gap. This means that a 6 year old could pair with someone at least 26 years old. A 13 year old could pair with an adult at least 33 year old, etc etc.

What if I need a partner?
If you would like to join a list of players seeking doubles partners, you   can access the self-service list here. This list is not monitored by the   organizer.

The entry fee paid covers a team of two players: Player 1 and Player 2. For  the $90 tickets, a t-shirt is included for each participant (limit   1/person).
