- Players arrange their own matches
- You can play on any court that suits both players
The league is:
- For everyone over the age of 18

- Don't worry that you won't be good enough - playing matches is the best way to improve, and we use an online questionnaire to assess people's ability so you play only people of a roughly similar level
- Affiliated to the LTA For adults aged 18 years and above

We are both similar players which made it interesting and both sets almost mirrored each other with John taking a 2-0 lead and then 3-1 lead in both sets. Though I won 5 games in a row to take the first set, I knew it was far from over as I had been in the same position in both my previous matches and lost! It was nearly deja vu as I went 5-3 up in the second, but John really stepped up to pull back and go 6-5 up. We eventually finished with a second set tiebreak where I scraped through, but neither deserved to lose. After three long matches, I'm exhausted now, but happy with the great matches and sporting opponents so far." -- Mark
