Tournament Rules
SEWA TENNIS LEAGUE WITH SHORT SETS
TOURNAMENT TENTATIVE DATES: END OF SEP OR 1 WEEK OF OCT 2019
Short scoring: Matches played within these leagues consist of two short sets with a conventional tie-break at one set all.
Ø A short set is played to four games instead of six.
Ø A set is therefore won at 4-0, 4-1, 4-2, etc.
Ø At 4-3 the player with the four-game advantage needs to win one more game to win the set (ie 5-3).
Ø At 4-4, the next game is sudden death - the set is won 5-4
Ø If the match goes to one set all, a match tie-break (first to 10 instead of 7) is played. The player who received serve at the end of the previous set serves first in the tie-break
