There are 7 points in dispute, with the winner of the majority of the Doubles getting one point and the 6 singles being worth one point each. The first team to secure 4 victories wins the match. Last year, the POTC “All star” team performed like a well oiled machine and competed fearlessly at every position up and down the line up. When it was all said and done (not until around 8:45 PM) POTC earned a tough fought 4-3 victory.
