WWT
World Team Tennis
So I went and volunteered with BBBS at a WWT event in Roseville hosted by the Sacramento Capitals on Wed night (Jul 11). I'd never been to a match like this before (and really I didn't get to see much of it because I was busy manning a station with some other folks). It's a different scoring format than regular tennis, but interesting. There are 5 matches that determine the outcome - Mixed Dbls, Wmns Dbls, Mens Sgls, Wmns Sgls, Mens Dbls. Ea match is played to 5 games. Points are scores by numbers (ie 1, 2, etc) rather than traditionally (love, fifteen, thirty, forty, duce, etc) which is a little weird for me, but ok, I guess. Still an interesting event.
