Summer Games | Tennis

The Chair Umpire is responsible for calling the score, enforcing the rules and managing the players. *Tennis experience needed*

You will be placed either at the net or in the back corner of each court to pick up any dead balls that hit the net during play. (3 per court)

Watch and see if a returning ball is inside or outside the line, marking the ball fair or dead. (2 per court)

Be in the skills area and practice with athletes on different aspects of the game (serving the ball, returning the ball, etc).

As games and skills play wrap up, take the final scores from each court back to the awards table. Then, once all final scores have been processed by the competition team, help to present awards to each athlete. Make sure the correct teams are present, the sound system is set, play Olympic music during presentation and announce awards to spectators as needed. Finally, 2 people may be pulled to assist with passing out lunch during this time as well.
