Record Breaking Year for Mixed Doubles
2021 saw more players and teams participating in USTA TACK Mixed Doubles than in any Mixed season in the last six years. 31 teams and 465 players participated in TACK Mixed Doubles this year - a 22% increase from last year.

Tennis is not only growing in popularity in Central Kentucky, a study highlighted in last month's National Recreation & Park Association July Issue indicated tennis participation nationwide increased 22% in 2020, with 21-million hitting the courts including nearly 7-million new and returning players.

TACK would like to thank all our team captains and players for making this fun, social summer of Mixed Doubles possible.
