Tennis Singles Games

by Jason Jamison

Team Singles (4-6 per court)

Two or three players on each side play out singles points, one point at a time. If a player wins the point, they can stay in for another point. Each point earned goes towards the team score. Players can start the point with a baseline feed or with a serve and return.

Variations

  • Side-out Serving: Whichever side wins the point gets to serve the next point.
  • 7/11: One side is the designated serving side and one side is the returning side. The serving side must score 11 points as a team before the returning side scores 7.
  • Simultaneous singles matches: Players keep the same opponent and play two points at a time before alternating out with the other singles players.
  • The coach can feed the ball into play to create different point scenarios (e.g. high and deep to backhand, short approach, running forehand, etc.)

Champ of the Court Singles (4-6 per court)

A designated champion competes against a line of challengers. Points can be started with a ground stroke feed or with serving and returning.

Variations

  • Win two points in a row to become the champion (best for short lines).
  • Be the first to win five points total when taking equal turns with the other players (best for long lines).
  • Have a player waiting at the net post (on deck) to take the place of the champion.
  • Divide the court in half to create two seperate games.
  • Require the champ or the challengers to start at the service line to focus on net play.
  • The coach can feed the ball into play to create different scenarios (e.g. high and deep to backhand, short approach, running forehand, etc.)
