Why You Should Go: Tennis, like a great safari, requires the eye of the tiger, the heart of a lion, and the endurance of an elephant. It also requires the scheduling ability of a high-power Hollywood assistant. Let someone else handle the filing so you can hit the court with an eight-week tennis league and tournament from Smash Tennis.

Why You'll Love It: You’ll get quality competition on your own schedule thanks to the convenient, flexible format. Whether you’re looking for a hard-core game or a casual match, any novice, intermediate, or open skill level guy or gal can find a division that fits. Plus, overall league winners are crowned city champion and earn major bragging rights.

How You’ll Play: For eight weeks, you’ll battle it out in weekly league-organized matches, scheduled at your convenience. Match up with other competitors based on your skill, coordinate your match time, then submit the winning (or losing) results for points. You’ll vie to be among the top eight and qualify for the league-wide tournament at the end of each season. They’ll handle the paperwork while you handle perfecting your Federer-like swing.
