| What is a World TeamTennis Corporate League? |
| The league is corporate co-ed tennis promoting goodwill among corporations and competitive fun for area tennis players. Some teams are not corporations, but a group of friends. The weekly matches consist of 6 sets (6 game pro-set) of TeamTennis doubles (1 set of men's and women's doubles, 1 set of men's and women's singles, and 2 sets of mixed doubles). |
| |
| 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. Total games won from all sets determine the winner. Substitutions and coaching are allowed during the match.

| 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.
