Sign up for the level that suits you best.*
Intermediate: Player demonstrates a broad knowledge of the rules of the game, gets high majority of serves in, is able to serve and return serves deep, hits to the weak side of opponent often, demonstrates more strategies of playing during games. This player works better with partners in communicating, covering court, moving to net. With varying consistency executes: lobs, forehand/backhand ground strokes, overheads, net volleys, and sustained dinking, starting to use drop shots in order to get to the net, hits fewer balls out of bounds or in the net and is able to sustain dinking in the game
Advanced: Anticipates opponents shots resulting in good court position, primarily plays offensively, controls and places serves and return of serves to best advantage, puts strategy into play in the game, consistently varies shots to create a competitive advantage, works and moves well with partner - easily switches court positions when required, very comfortable playing at the non-volley zone. Works with partner to control the line, keeping opponents back and driving them off-line, can block volleys directed at them, has good footwork and moves laterally, backward and forward with ease.
*Advanced players may only play in the advanced bracket. If a team consists of an intermediate player and an advanced player, the team must play in the advanced bracket.
*If your team consists of players in both age brackets, the team must play in the 18-50 age bracket. If both players on a team are in the 50+ age bracket, the team may choose to register for either the 18-50 or 50+ bracket.
