Tennis Bods™

Sixteen shapes, two players, one umpire who's clearly enjoying this far too much.

Sixteen shapes for two people who've watched enough Wimbledon to have opinions about grunting. Tennis Bods turns the whole sport into a shape-off: U Cannot Be Serious wants full McEnroe outrage, Ball Dispenser is exactly the undignified machine it sounds like, and Shhhhh demands the hush of Centre Court from two people who are absolutely not staying quiet. It suits mixed doubles partners, anyone who's ever argued a line call, or two people who fancy themselves as Hawkeye without the technology. Nothing needs a racket or a court — just ten seconds, a camera, and enough commitment to become Original Sun Block or Appropriate Attire when your turn comes. Auntie Zeffie judges like an umpire who's seen every excuse going. Best played by people who take the sport more seriously than their actual fitness allows, and who'd rather be scored on their tie breaker than their forehand.

How it works

  1. The card flips.
  2. You've got 10 seconds for the two of you to work out who's what and make the shape together.
  3. Bods! The camera catches it, Auntie Zeffie scores it and judges you.
  4. Share the result, or don't.
