The East Central Community College tennis program is hosting its annual Woods & Whites Doubles Tournament on Saturday, Oct. 29, at the Tennis Complex on the ECCC campus in Decatur.
The Woods & Whites event will be held from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. The cost is $40 per player, payable at the event. All proceeds support the ECCC men's and women's tennis programs and facilities.
Woods & Whites is a fun, social doubles tournament played like Wimbledon in the old days. Players must wear white clothing (minimum white shirt or T-shirt) and hit with wood racquets. White tennis balls will also be used. Wood racquets will be provided if needed.
The doubles tournament will be a round-robin format with four-game pro sets and old-school, nine-point tie breaks. Those without doubles partners will be paired with other players.
Pre-registration is recommended. To register for the tournament, contact ECCC Head Tennis Coach Jay Pacelli at jpacelli@eccc.edu or 601-635-6284 or by CLICKING HERE.
