Tennis

My tennis practice ended last week. I won a dollar for winning King of the Court. It's a game where there are two people on either side of the tennis court, and one person serves, and they play a game until one person gets two points, and then they switch places and the person who lost goes to the end of a line waiting to play the winner. Sometimes we play a game where you only have to get one point to win, and there are two lines waiting to play the person on the other side and you only use half of the court for each line. We practice serving and aiming.  When you serve, you're usually trying to hit a small orange rubber cone on the other side of the net about one foot tall.  At the end of each practice we have a race. We race from the white line at the end of the tennis court to the fence that borders the tennis court, which is about a ten foot long range.  The last person in who gets to the fence is the ref for the next race, which is from the fence to the white line. Every time a race is over the person who lost it becomes the next ref. We do this until there are only two people left racing each other. The winner of this race is the winner of all the races that day. we have tennis practice on mondays.
