Meets typically begin at 4:00 p.m., and players should arrive by 3:45 p.m.
Coaches will excuse players from school. For in-town meets, players are responsible for their own transportation. For out-of-town meets, LPS will provide transportation. Players must travel with the team.
Meets consist of 1-6 singles matches and 1-3 doubles matches. (Varsity will play a few different formats.)
Coaches determine the lineup for each meet. Not all players will participate in every meet. Coaches will attempt to announce the lineup the day before.
Only coaches are permitted to communicate with our players during matches. Players have 25 seconds between points and 60 seconds during side changes.
Consider bringing a chair, as most venues have limited seating.
Cheer Respectfully: Support your player and their team, but be considerate and avoid distracting the players. Clapping and positive encouragement are welcome, but yelling during points can interfere with the game.
Know the Rules: Learning the basic rules of tennis can make the game more enjoyable and help you follow the action. Learn about scoring, sets, and basic game mechanics. USTA Tennis Rules
Be Supportive: Whether they win or lose, your player will appreciate your support. Focus on their effort, sportsmanship, and improvement rather than just the result of the match.
Players need to bring their own water bottle!
Booster reps will organize a team snack list for most tennis events.
