RSTC had another great tournament on October 19. Turnout was high. 21 members came out to compete in our Octoberfest team tennis tournament. Teams: Lagers (T1), Stouts (T2), Pilsners (T3), and Ales (T4) led by captains: Kathy, Tracie, Barb, and Sandipan respectively. Some players were in the spirit and sported Halloween headbands! Team captains and spectators cheered on players as they made great shots down the line and awesome volleys! The sun was warm along with a cool breeze—a pleasant day for tennis.

Fun and competitive tennis were served up for the day. Tough matches played but only one team came out on top; the Stouts (T2): Sundar, Tracie, Sarah, Ken, and Luis. Winners received a goodie bag with beer nuts and a tennis racquet bottle opener keeping with our Octoberfest theme. Courtesy of RSTC and curated by Robin George.

RSTC members met at Das Bierhauz in downtown Redwood City for authentic German food and beer. It was so nice to see new faces and OG's enjoying themselves at the social; great job Mel!

Shout-out to volunteers for making the tournament a success, Mel and our Social Committee, Akosua Grant, Sarah Ehler, and Robin George for the draw, Sundar Venkateswaran for court set-up, Shubh Mondal and Mary Bianco for refreshments, and Ken Richied and Karmele Urtizberea for great pics. It was a wonderful day of tennis and socializing!
