How To Play Triples Tennis

Each team consists of 3 players. These 3 players are your team during the entire tournament. Each game has 3 versus 3 players. A feeder feeds a ball to one side of the Tennis court to start the point. After every point, each player rotates counterclockwise. At 11 points, the teams swap sides, giving each team a chance on the feed side. The goal is to be first to 21 points (win by 2).

Triples is a fast paced game to 21 and the points are moving quickly. Once the ball is fed into play, all players can move anywhere on the court. There are no restrictions on who can take what shot or where you stand on your side of the court.
