On one of the hottest days of the the summer on Cape Cod, twelve noble combatants took the courts of SYTC in a display of skill and good humor at the 2022 Woods & Whites mixed doubles tournament and cookout. Tennis with a 65 square inch head wooden racquet (on average half the size of a modern racquet head) is an entirely different game than we are all used to playing today. Challenging, difficult, kinda fun, and very humbling. It requires back to tennis basics skills to hit the ball successfully. Event organizer Pam Hero notes... "As I watch and take photos, I see great improvement within 30 minutes of play with almost every player even if it doesn’t feel like it to the player. Still nice to get back to our modern racquets the next time we play!" The food everyone brought was terrific, as usual. And, GrillMaster Al Hero always serves up great burgers, dogs and brats!
