A team must have two men and two women, as a minimum. We recommend at least 4 men and 4 women to accommodate schedules.

The coordinator can provide you with names of players looking for teams. |

| Determining Team Rating |
| The average NTRP rating of the top two men and top two women players on your team determines the team rating. |
| |
| Example: |
| |
Joe- 4.5 |
Mary- 3.5 |
| |
Tom- 4.5 |
Jill-3.5 |
| |
Bill- 4.0 |
Gail- 3.5 |
| |
Joe- 4.5 |
Mary- 3.5 |
| |
Jim- 3.5 |
Joan- 3.0 |
| |
| The best two men and two women are: 4.5 + 4.5 + 3.5 + 3.5 = 16. 16 divided by 4 equals 4.0. |
| |
| This team could register for the 4.0 division or a higher division. A team consists of a minimum of two men and two women.
Although the limit to the number of team members is ten, the suggested number of players is three men and three women.

| Can I register as an individual/substitute/team? |
You can register as an individual (we will make every effort to find an existing team for you to join in any given season), as part of a partial team (we will assign other players to complete your team), or a full team.
If you cannot commit to the entire season, we will place you on a substitute list. You will be contacted if a team needs a replacement player. |
| |
| Note to substitute players: |
Substitutes must register for the Impact Team Tennis Rec League in order to be on "sub list". Match fees, if any, will be determined between you and the captain.
Once you play for a team twice, you become a permanent part of their roster, and no longer a substitute.
