May 10, 2008 - Las Vegas
By Veronika Kawka
There are those occasional few times a year when the Las Vegas tennis community gets together to celebrate and honor those who have achieved great success in many aspects of life, whether it be on or off the court. This year’s Tennis Ball was no exception. Coming back to attend this year’s event, I knew it was going to be even bigger and better than the last. Sure enough this year’s event was a giant success.

Summer sectionals cannot be categorized as a "normal" tennis tournament, because so much more is on the line for the players. The Intermountain Sectional Championships are open to all junior players who meet age and residency requirements. Summer sectionals offer players an opportunity to participate in one of the most competitive levels of tournament play in the section. It also offers players the opportunity to gain a high level of points that count toward their Intermountain and National Ranking.
This year's Summer Sectional was held in Denver, Colorado on June 15-19, 2008. Denver is definitely a tennis player’s dream city. The weather, the number and quality of public and private tennis facilities are amazing! Nearly sixty junior players from Las Vegas converged on the city with the single-minded goal of emerging victorious as the Sectional Champion.

The 2008 USTA/Nevada Mixed Doubles District Championships were played this week-end, June 6-8, at the Darling Tennis Center. Red Rock CC’s 8.0 Mixed Doubles team played TPC’s 8.0 Mixed Doubles team. The matches were an incredible display of talent with the Red Rock team winning after 3 days of competition in a 3rd set tie-break, winning by 2 points. Both teams showed a great display of sportsmanship. Red Rock’s captain, Dr. Jeff Ng stated, ?This was a very difficult team to play (TPC), not only because of their ability but also because we are all such good friends.? The Red Rock team will now advance to the Intermountain Sectional Championships in Boulder, CO, July 18-20. For more league information, please contact Mary Maragos at 792-8384.
