Mystery solved. Now everyone can know how the colorful Mylan World TeamTennis court ends up taking over a basketball arena. The Philadelphia Freedoms home court is inside The Pavilion at Villanova University.

It takes a village to build, but the result is a unique venue, perfect for echoing fans' cheers and players' shouts. The temporary court is then stripped away to make way for Villanova's basketball team. Similarly, the defending champion Washington Kastles play inside the Smith Center in D.C., which normally houses George Washington University basketball (and other sports).

The Freedoms are 4-4 after falling to the San Diego Aviators on Monday night, while the Kastles are 3-4 after a home loss to New York Empire.
