Information and General NotesGeneral Interest Items and Announcements not specific to Tennis or Social Events
Several tournaments - Mens, Womens, Mixed - are all basically run the same way. They all have 24 participants with 6 or 7 rounds of play. These events always are very popular.
This tournament is limited to RTC members who have joined the club since the last time New Members was played. It is a great way to meet other people who have recently joined RTC.
Normally, there are 8 teams with 5 players on each--giving 40 people a chance to play! Teams play on a main draw to find the overall winner, and a back draw to find the consolation winner. All teams play 3 rounds to get overall standings.
This tournament is unique in that participants are only required to be Rossmoor residents; they are not required to be members of RTC. Also, Wild Card is played on the first Saturday of every month except November thru January, and then June.
On the first Saturday in November, a tournament is held to decide who are the champions of Wild Card. This event is by invitation only, and it is reserved for those who have either come in first, second or third in the previous Wild Cards that year.
