RTA’s 2022 18+ 3.5 women’s team rallies hard to make it to the playoffs! Ranked in 5th place during a very competitive regular season with 8 other teams in the East Bay region, RTA had 2 back-to-back matches that it had to win to clinch third place and compete in the playoffs. With some players out due to COVID infections and injuries, RTA fought hard and won both team matches to secure a place in the playoffs. On the evening of July 7, RTA faced off against Mervyn Morris in the first round of playoffs. With home court advantage, it was a battle from the start. Although all our players played lights out and gave it their best effort, unfortunately, RTA fell a bit short losing 2-3. It was a super close match. Although we did not make it to the second round of playoffs, our ladies were committed and dedicated throughout this awesome season. We all played hard, supported and encouraged each other, and most importantly, had a lot of fun. We were proud to represent RTA in the East Bay region this season. Players on the RTA team include: Megan Abramson Ward, Debbie Chang, Sandrine Chobert, Shauna Hannan, Mizue Kato, Andra Kavuma, Angie Koontz**, Sydnie Koontz, Christy Li, Diane Li, Stacie Maa*, Cindy Mark, April Nguyen, Nu Opapongpand, Natalie Prittenen, Kim Sakaue, Kim Shaw, Judith Silver, Nancy Strahan, Corri Synak, Mindy Williams, and Connie Wong-younger.
