| What is Impact Team Tennis? |
| Impact Team Tennis is co-ed teams competing in a format that consists of 6 no-ad sets. (One set each of mens and womens doubles followed by mens and womens singles, ending with 2 sets of mixed doubles.) Total games won from all sets determine the winner. Substitution and coaching are allowed during the match. |
| |
| What is a Impact Team Tennis team? |
| A team must have two men and two women, as a minimum, 10 players maximum. However, we encourage each team to field a minimum of 6 players (3 men, 3 women). This allows for periods of rest and will prevent teams from defaulting due to unforeseen injuries or fatigue. Subs are still required to register via the Impact Team Tennis website and are charged registration fee as well as per match fee. |
| |
| Who can play? |
| Adults (18 & over) may sign up as a team or as an individual. A player does NOT have to be a member of the host facility in order to play in this tournament. |
| |
| When do leagues start? |

| |
| Sign-Up Deadline: December 10th |

| 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.
