Comment Questions, Requirements, and Information

1. How is the roster decided for matches?
We have a lot of players that want to participate and we are grateful for the enthusiasm. However, we cannot play every single person every single match, at most we can only field 7 of us at a time (1 singles, and 3 doubles pair). We will do our best to ensure equal number of matches.
Priority for play will be decided based on the following criteria in order of importance:
  1. availability – we will do our best to inform everyone well in advance as to when match days are, those that respond promptly will be given priority to play
  2. showing up to practice – if more than 7 players are available for the match day, then those that put in effort to show up to practice will be given priority to play.
  3. skill level – if everything else is equal (prompt replies, availability, and does show up to practice), we will base it on the skill level of the players to decide who will be given priority to play.
  4. no one is available – we will then ask for subs from the Tumblers to sub up (a player can sub up a maximum of 2 times before they need to join the Trojans instead).
2. What if practice times do not match my schedule?
We will do our best to space out practice times so that it can cover the majority of people (time and location wise). However, please keep in mind that NONE of us are being paid to run practice. We all have other commitments, so please be understanding if whoever runs practice cannot accommodate you.
Maybe if there is no practice time which fits your schedule, you may opt to volunteer to run practice in a time/location which better suits you.
3. How are costs decided?
Home/Away Match Ties: approximately $30 including four courts @ NVTC for two hours, tennis balls, food & beverages.
4. I really want to play but I cannot commit to practice like everyone else.
We as a team, have decided that as much as we love to win and advance, it is in the spirit of Tennis Troupe to reward those that do put in the effort to come to practice.
If you cannot make most of the practices, then we will most likely call upon you when the other players are not available (Again this happens a lot as EVERYONE is usually busy/schedules shift last minute).
5. How is skill level assessed?
We use a combination of things to assess skill level. A couple of methods that we will be using are: entries into NTRP tournaments (what level you compete at and how far you make it in the tournament), ladder system in practice, etc. If you have any other suggestions please let us know and we can discuss it. We want to keep it as fair as possible.
6. I only want to play with one specific partner.
Let the captain or vice captain know if you have any kind of partner preference in private and we will take it into consideration. This may affect which doubles court we place your team on (court 1 needs to be the strongest pair and court 3 the weaker pair), but we will do our best to accommodate reasonable suggestions.
7. I disagree with decision that the captain or vice-captain made.
Please address the issue in an email to the trojans email ([email protected]) and we can have a discussion about the issue with all parties involved. We are all human, and we all make mistakes which can learn from.
