The Sun City West Tennis Club held their first of three annual “Team Tennis” events Jan. 25 at the R.H. Johnson Tennis Complex. This club competition is held three times throughout the year, and is in its 13h year of friendly competition.
Club members sign up to play in their respective ratings categories. Both women and men compete in doubles play. There are four teams with each one having a captain. Captains draw names to determine the players on their team. The teams are based on colors: Red, White, Green and Blue. Players wear their respective team color clothing for the event.
The winning team is based upon the number of games each team has won throughout the day. Each team plays all the other teams. Coaches have the daunting task of choosing who plays together, against the other teams. The trophy is the “Chicken.”
After the event, club members socialized with snacks, music and beverages. The winning team was the Mean Green Team, with captain Gayle Stray. The next Team Tennis is set for Saturday, March 8.
