JUNIORS Also in Captains Package TRI-LEVEL LEAGUES Tri-Level
format:
A recreational league with 3
double positions per match played at three straight NTRP levels so
friends can play together on one team, but play within their level.
Example: One double team of 2.5s,
One double team of 3.0s, and one double team of 3.5s = One Tri Level Team Objective:
Develop a format that would help create new league play in areas that currently
do not have enough players or limited players at a given NTRP level. Encourage
league recruitment and participation by teams of members with different NTRP
levels, to
play in a “socially competitive” program. NTRP range
variations within a league structure can be organized to best suit local
demands--leagues can be framed to include any three levels of play per match.
This format would be included in the League menu and offer coordinators
the flexibility to tailor programs to community needs.
Tri-Level would emphasize play at the local level, where fun and team camaraderie is the key, not
competition. Play would stop with
the local league or with possibly one round of playoffs at the area/district
level.
