New Players and Families - First Match Preparation

New Players and Families-

Attached file is an overview of how the League Matches generally take place during the day.   We do all the boys & girls singles first, then the boys/girls/mixed doubles.  Not all players will play doubles.  Players that don’t play doubles can leave after singles play is complete.

Other info:
  • Shirts for new players are on order; we should have these ready for League Match #2.
  • For returning players, wear your Lincoln shirts.  For new players, wear any Lincoln T-Shirt if you have one.
  • Wear same type of clothing you wear to practice.
  • Bring some healthy snacks and a water bottle to the match
  • Bring some reading or homework if needed, to do between matches
  • Please be respectful of the club and its’ employees; without the clubs and their support, we wouldn’t have a league !
  • Remember the matches are self–reffed games to 11… say the score loudly and clearly before each serve !
  • Shake your opponent’s hand after each match
  • No profanity, no banging racquet against the wall or floor… be respectful !
  • HAVE FUN !!!!!
