The '''Tennis League 1 (TL1)''' was a competition-based collection of tennis matches organized by Gallers that took place within the span of one month on the early pre-YouChew "Vanilla" Forums(youtubepoop.com) from November to December of 2007. While relatively informal in nature, it is considered to technically be the first site-sanctioned [[tournament]] and the first overall tennis competition, being foundational for the more complex-in-design tournaments that were yet to come.

The league consisted of only four participants: RabbitSnore, Misselaineous10, SushieBoy, and PapaGonzales. SushieBoy's account was terminated in 2009 and PapaGonzales' account was terminated in 2008; Misselaineous10 closed her account in 2018 but reuploaded all of her videos onto her little known alt account "Sashimushi" in 2019, and RabbitSnore closed his account in 2019 and did not subsequently reupload his videos. Between 2013 and 2019, the only match from this tournament to exist in full was RabbitSnore vs. Misselaineous10(2007) from the third set until the original uploads from both accounts were deleted. ~~The tournament~~ has seen renewed focus since the beginning of [[The Great Restoration]], as the first rounds to reappear from this project were PapaGonzales' rounds for this tournament starting with his rounds with RabbitSnore, allowing for material not seen for nearly two decades to finally resurface. Misselainoeous10 vs. PapaGonzales(2007) from ~~the~~ Set 2 became the first ever match from this tournament to be compiled into a single video on the [[YouWouldBeWelcome]] account in March 2026. SushieBoy vs. Misselaineous10 from Set 1 and PapaGonzales vs. SushieBoy(2007) from Set 3 are also both set to be recovered in full, along with SushieBoy's rounds with RabbitSnore; this will be the most complete the tournament has ~~ever~~ been in since 2008.

The winner of this event was '''PapaGonzales'''.
