ABSTRACT:
An improvement in a tennis singles stick for elevating to the prescribed height at the required distance outside the singles play area a net supported across a doubles court to convert the doubles court to regulation singles play.

The first embodiment maintains the band and netting in a common vertical plane. The second embodiment of the invention includes a unitary, elongation element with an upper end which is detailed to receive the top cable of the net and the band covering the same, the bottom end of the stick engaging the ground. The netting is maintained out of the vertical plane of the band.
