Re: Tennis Tipping - End Of Season Tennis Quiz Special (Week 47)

Welcome to our TT End of Season Tennis Quiz TT event. Hidalgo (Leo) has had an idea for a TT Game and asked me if I would co:Manage this event with him, and I said that I would be happy to help out.

As this is a fun event - the doubles teams will be picked using random.org

This is not a ranking event - it's just for fun - and you can play in your normal TT tennis event the same week


You can now commit :wavey:
