Lefty Willner Interclub Tennis Tournament

December 4, 2010

Mark your calendars now for December 4, 2010, for the LeWITT Coachella Valley Lefty Willner Interclub Tennis Tournament.  The tennis clubs throughout the Coachella Valley have banded together to inaugurate this event.  This is an all-levels "Team Event" composed of ten players and a Teaching Pro from each Club.  It will be a fun-filled day of round-robin matches, a barbeque with all the trimmings, and an opportunity to meet new tennis buddies.  All proceeds will be donated to the Grassroots Junior tennis program, a proactive organization that brings the game we all love to less fortunate youngsters throughout the Coachella Valley.
