We started as a small group of friends who met in a Pickleball class at Worthy Park in Huntington Beach, during the summer of 2021. We enjoyed playing with each other in class, so we exchanged our contact info and started reserving courts in Fountain Valley. We had a regular schedule of playing every Tuesday night as more and more friends started joining us.
The company that rents the courts in Fountain Valley suggested that we start our own league. We all thought it was a great idea and then we had to figure out a name for the league. Since, we're a co-ed group who likes to play mixed doubles and maybe have a drink or two after playing...Mixed Dinks seemed like the perfect name for the league!
We had our first official league night with 10 people on two courts on November 2nd, 2021. Since then, we've grown to over 40 active members with 40+ former members who still keep in touch.
Mixed Dinks is a private league and we're currently full. However, we're always open to new members when space becomes available. Most of our members have a 3.0 to 4.0 rating, so if you are above or below that range, it may not be a good fit for you.
We also have events that are open to the public occasionally where you can meet people from the league and play recreationally without scores being sent to DUPR.
