The Social committee of your Orillia Tennis Club has put together a new and fun tennis tournament TRIPLETS TENNIS. You read that correctly folks, TRIPLETS… .three on the court/ side.
Here’s How to Play:
- Enter with teams of three (or fourth person will rotate in) OR sign up as a single and we will place you on a team.
- Min One Female, one Male
- Three people on each end of the court at the same time, full doubles court
- one at service line (side), two at the baseline to start
- Spin for 1st serve
- Server serves the ball cross court as normal and continues to serve from the deuce court on each point until their team loses a point (server only serves from the deuce court)
- ONE serve only (this evens the playing field)
- Win a point on every serve
- When you lose a point, you rotate clockwise
