The Tennis League III was a Youtube Poop Tennis Competition hosted primarily by Gallers that was started in August 2008, but ultamitely failed shortly therafter due to too many players dropping out. It was intended to be closer in style to that of the Tennis Cup in its voting style with the only major difference being the matches sticking to just 4 rounds, the amount of participants as a result of this were twice the amount of the second league, dividing everyone by four groups.


Development

RAKninja originally suggested for a third tennis League in July 2008 the idea of there being 8 divisions of 4 players that work on teams instead of individually that would play each gameweek, with each team choosing a player to play in each match. The overall win for a team would be decided by best 2 out of 3, which for 4 round matches RAK suspected wouldn't take long at all. He also planned to host it after the Tennis Cup I ended, also suggesting the idea of new awards for the event pertaining to MVPs, best "rookie" players, all-star teams, and so on. strong414bad immediately initiated the idea of an all WMM team, which was echoed by RabbitSnore who initiated the idea of an all-Tennis Fuck team, and enthusiasm on his part became instant. With only an estimated 2 weeks left of the Tennis Cup I, he figured that it was the perfect time to start getting it organized.

While it is apparent that a thread for this potential version of the League was made according to old posts, the thread itself seems to have not survived. Gallers would at some point reappear, and become irritated that he was never consulted about the idea even though the last three Tennis Tournaments had all been under his helm, and he was the primary organizer of the Leagues specifically. He soon started up the "proper" Tennis League 3, which he described as "None of that team bollocks or owt like that, just individuals going head-to-head in a round-robin format competition". RabbitSnore and RAKninja would not participate in its management or the League itself.

The rules remained more or less the same as the two leagues prior, mentioning that it was all to work like the Tennis Cup except for there being only 4 rounds a match. Every first week was to have matches and every 2nd week was to allow for votes.
