* Note: When rules refer to a "team" it applies to a player for Singles or both players for Doubles.
WAIVER OF CLAIMS: Players participating in any T2Tennis Leagues or Ultimate Tennis Leagues acknowledge and understand the risks associated with playing competitive tennis, accept those risks voluntarily, and, in consideration of their acceptance, registration and participation in any T2Tennis event, league or sponsored event assume all risks for bodily injury, waive all claims for injury and property damage, and release and hold harmless T2Tennis, LLC, all employees and directors, owners of T2Tennis,LLC as well as the host facility, their officials, employees, and agents with respect to any injury or loss caused by negligence or otherwise to the fullest extent permitted by law.
1. Level of Play
Players are required to select a level that offers good, competitive matches. The final determination of level placement will be made by the T2Tennis League Administrator using the following criteria:
- Requested Level
- T2Tennis Play History
- NTRP Level and Ultimate Tennis Level (Atlanta only)
- Division Scheduling Needs
*If the system does not offer you the correct or competitive level during registration, you MUST contact customer service prior to the start of the season to have your level adjusted. If it is determined that a team has not chosen a competitive level, we reserve the right to withdraw the team at any point during the season or playoffs.
Refer to the following sections for specific Adult and Junior play level rules:
- Adult (Men & Women) - Doubles, Mixed Doubles and Singles
T2Tennis uses the USTA/NTRP system to determine play levels for Adult Leagues. To see more information about the NTRP rating system, please click here. Once a T2Tennis ranking is established, that level will determine a player or team’s rating in future seasons unless it has been more than 2 years since the last season of T2Tennis play.
- New Players/Teams:
New Players/Teams are defined as 2 players that have NOT played together as a team in a prior T2Tennis Doubles League or a player that has NOT played in a prior T2Tennis Singles League within the last two years..
- If you have not played T2Tennis before and have a current Ultimate Tennis rating, then register at the level shown in the conversion chart below. If you have not played T2Tennis or Ultimate Tennis, but have a USTA/NTRP rating, you must use that rating. If you do not have a USTA/NTRP rating, click here to find your appropriate USTA/NTRP play level. Alternatively, you may check with your tennis coach or favorite tennis pro to help determine your USTA/NTRP play level.
- Singles Leagues: Register with your T2Tennis rating (if you have one) or your USTA/NTRP rating.
- Doubles Leagues: T2Tennis offers you the ability to play Doubles and Mixed Doubles with a partner of different skill level. Both partners' skill levels are matched to produce a "team playing level" based on the tables below. If one or both players have played T2Tennis before (doubles or singles), your level choice(s) will be determined during registration. If neither player has played T2Tennis before, use the tables below to determine your T2Tennis "team playing level".
First, find your level on the left hand side of the table below (Player A).
Next, find your partner's level on the top of the table (Player B).
The intersection of the two levels will be your T2Tennis "team playing level".
Finally, register your team at the level where the players' levels intersect.
Use for all Atlanta leagues:

T2Tennis discourages teams with partners more than two full playing levels apart (i.e. A team of a 3.0 player and a 4.5 player).
- For Mixed Doubles only, a team where the woman has the higher of the two players' NTRP ratings, and the ratings are more than one level apart, can self-rate one level lower from the level shown on the chart. (Ex. If a woman is rated 3.5 and her partner is 2.5, team can play at 3.0).
- Underrating & Playoff Eligibility: New teams/players that do not follow our guidelines on initial level selection or finish their season with too high a winning percentage will be disqualified from winning the division and participating in the playoffs. Any new doubles team (either one or both players) or singles player who has no T2Tennis playing history or T2Tennis established level that finish the regular season with a winning percentage of 75% or higher will automatically be disqualified from participating in the playoffs. Disqualification may occur at any point during the season.
- Returning Players/Teams:
Returning Doubles Teams are players who have played together as a team in the past two years. Returning Singles Players are defined as players that have played T2Tennis Singles in the past two years.
Returning players and teams qualify to move up or down based on their MOST RECENT SEASON OF PLAY (game winning percentage is calculated as the number games won divided by the total number of games played) and the criteria below. It is the responsibility of players and teams to email customer service if the correct level is not offered to them during registration.
| Less than 30% | Automatically move down 1 level. |
| Between 30% and 40% | You CAN move down 1 level. |
| Between 40% and 60% | You must play at the same level. |
| Between 60% and 70% | You CAN move up 1 level. |
| Greater than 70% | Automatically move up 1 level. |
| Division Winner and 65% or Greater | Automatically move up 1 level. |
| City Finals Winner | Automatically move up 1 level. |

2. match scheduling
- Contacting your opponent: It is both players’/teams’ responsibility to communicate their availability with their opponents by the Wednesday prior to the Scheduled Week. In a doubles team, one player should be designated as a spokesperson for that team. Each team offers 3 available dates to play the match (not including the "Play by" date) or agrees to a date offered by the opponents. Dates and times offered to your opponents must be within the timeframe on the schedule for the match, and coincide with the dates/times of the league the teams are registered in. (Example: Weekday Women’s league plays on weekday mornings, finishing up early afternoon.) Any other offered dates/times are not valid.
*Be considerate during communication, and respond promptly to your opponent. Abusive and threatening language during scheduling is not tolerated and will be grounds for forfeit as determined by the league.
- Scheduling your matches: T2Tennis allows you two weeks to play each match. The first week is the "scheduled week". The second week is the "make up" week. All matches have a "Play by" date. The Play by date (listed on your schedule) is the last day a score may be posted for that match. The ONLY exception is the use of a Late Pass (see Late Pass Rules Below). If a match is not played on the first match week, the match must have a scheduled date by the Monday of the make up week. Directions and scheduled match time should be confirmed with the opponent. Please notify T2Tennis if the directions or address are incorrect for a tennis facility. T2Tennis maintains a database of directions; however, we must rely on players for corrections.
IMPORTANT: If each team has offered 3 dates (within the timeframe for the match) and cannot agree on a date to play, the match is automatically scheduled to be played on the “Play by” date, of the corresponding match, at the final time.
- Match Times: Unless both teams mutually agree to play at a different time, matches must begin between the start times shown below:
Business Women's, Men's, and Mixed Doubles Leagues:
- Monday - Friday: matches must begin between 6:00pm - 8:00pm
- Saturday - Sunday: matches must begin between 9:00am - 7:00pm
Weekday Women's League:
- Monday - Friday: matches must begin between 8:00am - 12noon
Junior's League League:
- Monday - Friday: After 4pm - to 6pm
- Weekends - 9am- 6pm
The Default times for the "Play by" date are:
- Weekday Women: 11 am
- Business Women, Men and Mixed Doubles: 7 pm
- Juniors & High School Leagues: 4 pm (Weekend); 5 pm (Weekday)
- Unable to contact your opponent: If you have contacted your opponents by both phone/text and email and still receive no response by Wednesday of the match week, please email the League office so that we have a record of it. If you still have received no reply by the Tuesday of the make up week, you should take the win by forfeit (see instructions on your scoring page) and notify the League office.
- Rescheduling: Once the match is scheduled, the rule to offer 3 available dates becomes obsolete and the "Rescheduling" rule would apply if the scheduled match is canceled. You may reschedule your match one time provided you give your opponents at least 24 hours notice (you must receive confirmation back from your opponent that they received your rescheduling request). A rescheduled match is automatically scheduled for the play by date at the default time, UNLESS the teams agree to a different date/time. If you give your opponents less than 24 hours notice OR need to cancel more than once, your opponent has the option of rescheduling or recording a "win by forfeit". If both teams can’t agree on a later date to play the match, or if the match can’t be played for any other reason, the opponent will take the win by forfeit (even if they have agreed to reschedule).
- Inclement Weather on the "Play by" date: If a match is rained out on the play by date AND one team forced the match to be played on the deadline without offering three options days to play the match as per the T2 rules, the other team can record a win by forfeit (provided that team offered three days to play, not including the play by date).
- Inclement Weather on the end of the season deadline: For matches scheduled on the last play by date of the season and rained out (no late passes allowed), we will post a message on the "My Leagues" page that day with instructions on how to proceed. Teams that have a match scheduled on the last play by date of the season will run the risk of not playing the match if there is inclement weather.
- Late Score Pass: The late score pass is used to post a late score after the play by date of matches 1-4. The Late Pass is designed to help avoid defaults by providing members the ability to play one match beyond the posted play by date (but by end of the season deadline).
IMPORTANT - The late score pass cannot be used for match #5 or in the playoffs.
- Each team (or player for Singles) has one late score pass per season.
- Both teams must agree to play the match after the play by date of the match and normal match scheduling rules apply.
- Decide which team will use the late score pass. This must be confirmed by email by both teams (do not email T2). If both teams have a need to use the late score pass, we suggest you agree that the winning team uses their late score pass.
- How to use your late score pass: If the "deadline" date of the match has passed, the system will show a "Use Late Score Pass" link on the schedule page for that match. The team that agreed to use the late score pass will click on this link. Click on the link before playing the match. NOTE: Once you click on this link, your late score pass is used.
- After the late pass is used, the "Report Score" link on the schedule is reactivated. As usual, the winning team reports the score.
- All late score matches must be recorded before midnight on the end of the season deadline.
Late Score Pass notes:
* T2Tennis will not mediate any late score pass disputes.

3. Match Play
- USTA "The Code" rules of conduct apply. The current USTA Rules will govern play for procedures not covered by T2Tennis Rules. T2Tennis Rules shall always supercede USTA rules of play. Print a copy of this Rules section to keep in your tennis bag.
- All players are expected to uphold their commitment to the league and the other players in the division by completing all matches.
- Court Surface:T2Tennis permits the use of clay or hard court surfaces, and the choice of court surface is up to the home team. It is the AWAY team’s obligation to inquire about the court surface in advance so that they can be prepared. NOTE: Juniors play on regular size courts.
- Balls: The home team supplies an unopened can of yellow USTA approved balls for the match and will retain the balls after the match. Note: Juniors’ 10U play with regular yellow balls. Winners do not receive an unopened can of balls.
- Warm-Up: Teams have up to 10 minutes prior to the start of a match as a warm up. The warm-up is not a time to practice "winners", return of serves, etc. Players should make a good faith effort to hit balls back as close as possible to their opponent.
- The winning team MUST post the match score before midnight of the play by date.
- Court fees: Any required court fee and/or guest fee must be paid by the home team.
- Home Court Not Available: If your home court is not available or becomes unavailable for your match, you may play at an alternate site if it is no farther for your opponent. If you do not have an alternate that is the same distance or closer for your opponent, you must play at the opponents’ court. Changes to court location must be communicated at least 2 hours prior to the match, by phone or text, and not via email. The home team is not obligated to give up their home match due to weather (please see Weather rules for inclement weather rescheduling).
- Restroom Not Available: If your bathroom facilities are not operational you must offer to play the match at your opponent’s court. Failure to provide working public restrooms at the court is grounds for forfeit. Portable and private home restrooms are not considered acceptable options for restrooms.
- Court Lights: The home team must provide a playable court with proper lighting. For evening matches, if your facility does not have lights you must offer to play at your opponent’s court. Always allow enough time to play a full 3 sets when reserving a night match. Please see Scoring (#6) if court time and lights are limited. If the lights go out during a match and cannot be turned back on, the away team has the option to record a win by retirement or to reschedule the match at the same court. If for any reason the match can’t be played, the away team can still take the win.
- Coaching: Coaching is not permitted. Spectators may not intercede in any way. The League welcomes spectators to attend matches and cheer on their family, friends and teammates. However, to ensure a postive match experience for all players, spectators must:
- Remain outside of the court area while the match is in progress.
- Not cause distractions or delay of play.
- Not intervene on behalf of a player or team i.e. making line calls etc.
Spectators that are disruptive in any way may be asked to leave by the opposing team. Failure to leave the court area is grounds for a default.
- Rest Periods and Breaks: In an effort to ensure matches progress within a reasonable time frame, the following standard USTA and T2Tennis rules will be in force:
Players are allowed a maximum of 25 seconds between points.
Players are allowed a maximum of one minute and thirty seconds when changing sides of the court.
Players are allowed a 10 minute break between the second and third sets.
Players are allowed a one time 3 minute injury suspension.
Play shall never be suspended, delayed or interfered with for the purpose of enabling a player to recover his strength, breath, or physical condition.
Players may have one toilet emergency visit per match which shall not exceed 5 minutes.
- Cell phones: All cell phones and smart watches must be turned off or muted for match play. If a player needs to place a call during a match, they may make a call in the 90 seconds allotted for changing ends or the 10 minutes between the 2nd and 3rd sets. If you need to leave a cell phone on during match play for medical or emergency purposes and your phone rings, your opponents will be awarded the point in progress.
- Opponent is Late: There is a 20 minute default rule. After 20 minutes, the waiting team has the option of taking the win by forfeit or waiting longer for the opponent to arrive. Schedules list cell phone numbers so you should at least try to contact a late opponent to be sure they aren’t lost or having traffic problems.
Please remember, T2Tennis is about playing tennis. We want matches determined on the court whenever possible. To avoid misunderstandings that can lead to unnecessary no shows, teams should:
Designate a meeting place at the facility (many times both players are at the facility just in different locations).
Have the opposing team's contact numbers on hand.
Call the opposing team immediately if running late and provide a time frame your team will arrive.
Keep cell phones near and turned on.
*If the waiting team has waited more than 20 minutes, agrees to play and the match is not able to be completed for any reason, the team that was late will retire the match.
- Excessive Forfeits: A team having excessive forfeits may be disqualified from playoffs and/or suspended for the next season. This penalty also applies to any team withdrawing after the registration deadline and to teams that forfeit playoff matches.
- Conflicts should be settled by the players on the court using the T2 rules first, then USTA rules and finally ‘The Code’, since a T2Tennis representative is not present during matches.
Unsportsmanlike conduct: Aggressive behavior is never allowed during a tennis match. T2Tennis reserves the right to refuse to place a player that has a history of unsportsmanlike conduct complaints filed against him/her. Remember...Good sportsmanship begins with fair play and a good attitude.
- Additional rules for juniors:
- A parent/guardian must accompany juniors to their matches.
- Clapping for a point well played by both players is allowed. Parents, please use your best judgment.
- Discrepancies concerning a call or score should be settled by the junior players. If the players can’t remember the score, they should return to the score they can both agree on and proceed from there. Juniors should be encouraged to make fair and honest line calls. If a parent clearly sees that his/her child is making bad line calls in their own favor, the parent is permitted to remind his/her junior about how to make good calls. If any part of the ball touches the line, the ball is good.
- Upon agreement by both parents present at the match, a player may be defaulted for unsportsmanlike conduct on the court. Any incidents of unsportsmanlike behavior should be reported to the League office. After 2 complaints are received within a season, T2Tennis will notify the parents.

4. Playoffs
- Opting-In: All teams must "opt-in" to be included in the end of season playoff (even if you win your division, you still must opt-in). Click on the link at the top of your schedule to opt-in to the playoff. You must opt-in before the end of the season. Teams that have added a replacement player and don’t qualify to win the division, will not qualify to opt-in to the playoffs. Please be aware that travel distances to playoff matches can be considerably farther than regular season matches. Players should only opt in if you will be available in each round of the playoffs, including the play by dates.
- Criteria to qualify for playoffs:
- You must "Opt-In" for the playoffs.
- Division Winners: All division winners will automatically qualify unless you have too many "loss by forfeits" or "not played" matches. (see below).
- Points: Teams must have a minimum of 9 points to qualify for playoffs. Depending on the number of teams that opt-in, some second, third and possibly 4th place teams may qualify.
- Forfeits: Teams with more than 1 loss by forfeit or 1 "score not reported" in a season will not qualify for the playoffs (retired matches do not count).
- Teams will be seeded based on Division Winners, then number of points and finally game winning %.
- At the conclusion of the season, an e-mail will be sent to each team that chose to participate in the playoffs letting them know if they made the playoffs.
- Accessing your playoff schedule: If your team made the playoffs, you will see a new Playoff match at the bottom of your schedule (under week 5). The highest seeded team will be the home team. Make sure you play and enter your score by midnight of the "deadline" date of each playoff match.
- Scheduling a playoff round: Each team must offer 2 dates to play each playoff round (not including the play by date), or agree to a date offered by the opponents. Due to limited days to play each round, weekend dates are valid to offer in all leagues. If both teams offer 2 dates and can’t agree, then the match is automatically scheduled for the play by date at the default time.
- There are no late passes or individual extensions during the playoffs.
- Solving scheduling issues: If a team has not offered 2 dates to play the playoff round and cannot agree to either of the 2 dates offered by the opponents, the team forfeits the match. A team that has not offered 2 dates to play cannot force the playoff match to be played on the play by date. If neither team has offered 2 dates to play the match and cannot agree to a date to play, the match is scheduled at the default time on the play by date.
- After entering a winning match, your next playoff match will appear on your schedule AS SOON AS YOUR OPPONENT IS DETERMINED. Please enter your scores promptly. If it is not shown initially, please check back frequently to see if your next match has been determined.
- Matches that are not played by the play by date will go unscored, and neither team will move forward in the bracket.
- Final times for the "deadline" date are:
- Weekday Women: 11 am
- Business Women, Men and Mixed Doubles: 7 pm
- The entire playoff bracket for your league and level can be accessed by clicking on the city playoff link at the top of your schedule (after the playoffs begin).
- First time teams: Teams playing their first season with T2Tennis that have a game winning percentage of 75% or more will not be eligible to participate in the playoffs.
5. Weather
- Rain:
- It is imperative that the home team contacts the away team by phone or text if the weather is questionable for the match.
- The home team should never assume the opponent knows it is wet at your courts and the visiting team should never assume that a match is canceled due to weather at their opponent’s courts. DO NOT cancel matches via email.
- If Team A shows up at the courts to play at the scheduled match time/day, and Team B does not show because they assume the match is unplayable due to weather (without making contact with Team A), Team A may take the win by forfeit.
-
Temperature:
- If the temperature is above 95 degrees or below 32 degrees (Fahrenheit) before the match begins, it is the option of the players to play or reschedule the match. If the temperatures are outside this range, and any player wishes not to play, the match must be rescheduled.
- The temperature is determined by a weather app set to the zip code of the location of the home court.
- Heat index and wind chill are not used to determine whether or not the match will be played.
-
Thunder or lightning:
- If thunder or lightning are observed by any player, play must be stopped and players must wait for 30 minutes to resume the match. If lightning strikes again during that 30 minute delay, the match must be rescheduled (see below).
- Rescheduling due to weather: Matches that must be rescheduled due to inclement weather of any kind are automatically rescheduled for the play by date at the default time unless teams agree to play prior to that or to use a late pass for matches 1-4 (see Late Pass Rule 2.I.).
- If players have assembled to play and the match is delayed or interrupted by rain or wet courts, players must wait 30 minutes to determine if the court is playable. If after 30 minutes courts remain unplayable, players are free to leave and reschedule. If the match had begun, players must resume the match at the exact game and point as when play was interrupted. When resuming a match in the 3rd set or with more than 2 days between the start of the original match, new balls must be provided by the home team.
- Inclement Weather on the LAST play by date of the season: Teams that have a match scheduled on the LAST play by date of the season will run the risk of that match not being scored.
top
6. Scoring
- Adults and High School - All matches are best 2 of 3 sets. However, if teams agree prior to the beginning of the match, a tiebreaker may be played in lieu of a full third set. The tiebreaker can be either a 7-point or 10-point tiebreaker. The tiebreaker format must be agreed to by both teams prior to the start of the match. In the case of a third set tiebreaker, record the third set score as 7-6.
- Tiebreakers and limitations on court time: It is up to the home team to notify the away team of the amount of time reserved for the match, or if there is a limited time for the lighting of the match. Teams must agree before the match or after the second set to EITHER to play a tiebreaker in lieu of a third set, OR play a full third set and resume the match at a later time if it is not completed in the allotted time. If one team does not agree to play a tiebreaker, and time or lights run out, the match is automatically rescheduled at the same court on the play by date at the default time.
- Juniors: The third set will always be a 7-point tiebreaker (see below for details). Record the third set score as the actual score of the tiebreaker, i.e. 7-3.
If all players agree before the match begins, a 7-point tiebreaker may be played in lieu of the 2nd set (record a 7-6 score for the 2nd set if you play the 2nd set as a tiebreaker).
- Reporting scores: Scores for all matches (including "Forfeits" and "Retired" matches) must be reported by the winning team/player by midnight of the "Deadline" date. Record the actual set scores. Tiebreakers are recorded as 7-6 (except for Juniors playing a 3rd set - see above). If the score is not reported, the match will be shown as "not played" and each team will receive 0 points. A score may be recorded after the deadline date by using a "Late Pass" (see "Late Score Pass" under "Matches").
Forfeit win: A "Won by Forfeit" is reported when the opponent(s) is not available to play the match or does not respond to the opponent’s emails and phone calls.
Retired matches: A "Retired" win is reported by the winning team when a match cannot continue due to injury, illness, personal reasons or disagreement. To record a Retired match, enter the score of games/sets played and check the "Retired" box.
The final determination of a retired match score is up to the discretion of the league in cases of disputes that are not settled by players on the court.
- Points Awarded: The winner of a match receives 3 points - one point for each set and a bonus point for winning the match (this includes wins by forfeit or retirement). If the losing team/player won a set, one point is awarded. If they did not win any sets, no points are awarded.
- If the score is not reported, the match will be shown as "not played" and each team will receive 0 points. A score may be recorded after the play-by date by using a "Late Pass" (see "Late Score Pass" under "Matches").

7. 7-Point Tiebreaker Rules
- The first team/player to win seven points shall win the game and the set provided the lead is at least two points. If the score reaches six points all, the tiebreaker shall be extended until this margin has been achieved. Numerical scoring shall be used throughout the tiebreaker.
- The player whose turn it is to serve shall be the server for the first point which is delivered from the right court (deuce court). His opponent shall be the server for the second and third points to be delivered from the left (ad) court, the right (deuce) court, and thereafter each player shall serve alternately for two consecutive points (left court, right court) until the winner of the game and set has been decided.
- Players shall change ends after every six points and at the conclusion of the tiebreaker. Note that after any change of ends the server will be serving his second serving point.
- Doubles Matches Serving Order: The player whose turn it is to serve shall be the Server for the first point. Thereafter each player shall serve in rotation for two points, in the same order previously in that set, until the winners of the game and set have been decided.

8. Injury/Replacement Players/Withdrawal
- Substitute Players: Substitutes are not allowed, but a permanent replacement player/team is allowed. If you (or your partner) become permanently injured and/or cannot finish the season, please email us immediately.
- Injury - Doubles: If your partner becomes injured, we will allow a one time, permanent (for the season) replacement to allow your team to complete the season (the replacement player must have/create a profile in the T2 system). The replacement player must be rated at or below the team's current T2 level of play. If any matches were played with the original partner, your team will be ineligible to win the division or opt in to the playoffs. Please email the league whenever you need to replace a player. A replacement player may not play until his/her name appears on the schedule.
- Injury - Singles: If you become injured and are unable to complete the season for any reason, please email the League Office immediately. We will attempt to replace an injured player.

9. Division Winners
- Division Winners are determined by the team with the most points. If there is a tie, the team with the best "game winning percentage" will be declared the division winner (we recognize all juniors tied for first place based on Points as Division Winners).
- All Division Winners will receive bag tags and car magnets. You can login anytime after the "Deadline" date of the last match of the season to view the final standings

10. Video recording of a T2Tennis match
- A player or team cannot record or video a match, any part of a match, or warmup without consent of their opponent or BOTH opponents in the case of a doubles match. For Juniors there must also be consent of parents. If a player or team does not agree then the match cannot be recorded or videoed. If a team still insists on recording or videoing, then the other team can "walk away" and will win by forfeit.
