| What is a WTT team? |
| A team must have two men and two women, as a minimum, 10 players maximum. This allows for periods of rest and missing matches. Teams play five "no-ad" sets: one set each of men's and women's singles and doubles and one set of mixed doubles. Total games won from all sets determines the winner. Substitution and coaching are allowed. |
| |
| Corporate League Rules: |
- At least 50% of your team has to be employees.
- Players must compete in at least 2 matches to be eligible to advance with their team.
- A team must have at least 2 employees present to play at each match.
- Divisions are based on the team average NTRP rating of the top two men and top two women.
- Players must be 18 or over to play in the league.

| Determining Team Rating |
The average NTRP rating of the top two men and top two women players on your team determines the team rating.
| Example: |
| Joe - 4.5 |
Mary - 3.5 |
| Tom - 4.5 |
Jill - 3.5 |
| Bill - 4.0 |
Gail - 3.5 |
| Jim - 3.5 |
Joan - 3.0 |
|
|
The best two men and two women are: 4.5 + 4.5 + 3.5 + 3.5 = 16. 16 divided by 4 equals 4.0. This team could register for the 4.0 division or a higher division. A team consists of a minimum of two men and two women. Although the limit to the number of team members is ten, the suggested number of players is three men and three women.
