With the Irvine Junior Games and AP testing starting in May we will not have access to as many courts as we typically have. As a result most teams in the Boys and Girls 5th grade and up have a double header on the 27th. Kindly check the time of your games. Teams that play a double header on the 27th will likely have a bye on one of the later weeks of player.The easiest method is to click on your team itself to show only your games.

Reminder that there are no games this Sunday due to Easter. Games will resume on April 27th. We are currently working on the schedule for the 27th and anticipate having it released by the end of the week.

During games please try to practice positive sportsmanship. We would like to focus on encouraging player growth and confidence on the court.
