Introducing A New Division!
> summer season
(June - August)
The season includes a minimum of 6 matches. Each match is
played for 2 hours on 2 courts. Tennis balls and refreshments
provided. The season concludes with an end-of-season party
where all league participants enjoy buffet dinner and open bar,
tennis, dancing and other activities. The winners of all divisions
advance to semi-finals or finals for their league.
> play format
Each team match consists of 6 individual matches played
as regular no-ad sets:
• 1 women singles
• 1 men singles
• 1 women doubles
• 1 men doubles
• 2 mixed doubles
Levels of play are Advanced, Intermediate and Hi-Five. The
winners of all divisions (except Hi-Five) advance to playoffs
at the end-of-season party. Games won are totaled cumulatively throughout the season. In case of a tie, the headto-head scores will be the tiebreaker. Coaching and player
substitutions are permitted during the match. This allows for
more players to get involved and creates a fun atmosphere.
Our corporate league emphasizes networking and
social occasions as well as opportunities to improve
your tennis game. Each league night, refreshments
are served after the matches, including
hors d’oeuvres, wine and beer.
