Rules:

Hennis, or hand tennis, is a simplified version of tennis where a racket is not used in favor of the player’s hand. All other tennis rules are the same, except scoring is different. Scoring starts at zero -zero and each subsequent point is the military code name for the alphabet- ie alpha bravo Charlie delta. There is no “deuce” or advantage- if a player does not win by Delta play continues till someone wins by two points; the points continue to be named after military letter signifiers.
