We hope you’ll join us for a Red Ball Mixer at this year’s Homecoming Alumni Tennis Event! While we will still give those who want to the chance to play some tennis, we’re going to try to get everyone involved, even spouses if they’d like!
What is a Red Ball Mixer?
- USTA’s response to the Pickleball craze 🙂🙂
- Played similar to pickleball using red balls and jr sized racquets
- Teams of 2-5 playing timed matches with games to 4 and rotating who is in after each game. Most games won in the timeframe wins the match!
- It doesn’t matter who feeds, whoever has a ball, and feed to whomever you choose
- The feeding team must let the return bounce before hitting any volleys
- The kitchen is in play so you must stay behind it
We will plan to do this 3:00-4:30 p.m. and then afterwards anyone who wants to play tennis is welcome to go do so.
We will plan to have something for kids to do while you play!
Please help spread the word and let’s get a great turnout, regardless on if you play or not! It will be great to see you again and to introduce you to this year’s teams!
Please register here and be sure to note if you’ll play Red Ball or not.
See you then! Go Eagles!!
