Summer Shootout Week 1 Update

August 7, 2023

Sunday Singles Shootout at RMTC

The Sunday Singles Shootout showed great potential. The idea is to get a group of us together to play 1 set of singles and rotate to play against someone else so we can play as many matches against different play styles as possible. Unfortunately due to this crazy summer weather we're having, we had to end the event before a set was completed and switch to the clay. Despite the weather, we still had some great tennis, some food and drinks. I plan to organize something similar next weekend depending on our weekend committments for tournaments and league matches.

Few photos from the Sunday event. Top left: David getting ready to rip the backhand. Bottom left: Pete warming up on clay. Right: Igor sliding into the ball to make a tremendous dig.

Summer Shooutout Trophy

I think a themed tennis event requires a unique trophy.The person at the top of the leaderboard with most # of games won will be deputized with this badge on the first day of the US Open (August 28th).

It's still early and I think we're all getting acclimated to the idea of playing singles again so the trophy is ripe for the taking.
