FREE TENNIS BALLS
Every player who completes three matches by the midway point of any round is sent a FREE can of tennis balls! Plus there are great offers all the time in our shop.
This is how it works:
- Players are organised into groups of between 5 to 9 people of a similar standard
- It is a mixed sex, singles league, so men and women play each other
- Groups are put together by standard and there can be any combination of men and women in a group (we do not guarantee a balance of men and women and you could be the only man in a group of women or vice versa!)
- Contact details are emailed and posted to each player's account page
- 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
- We welcome beginners as well as advanced players.
- 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
Key points

First set ended in a tight tie break which I squeezed through 10-8. Second set was less competitive and I won 6-1. Chris has a really great serve which I never learned how to read or deal with.

Reveal CommentPaul Murana bt Felipe Rodriguez (Jun 20) 6-7 (5-7), 6-2, 6-2
Player Comments:
- "This was a really tough start to the round, three sets over two and a half hours. Felipe is a talented player and has much better ground strokes than me. Felipe had set points against me at 4-5 in the first but I managed to force a tie break. Which I eventually lost on a double fault at 5-6 I’m pretty sure I only won due to a slight difference in fitness and that Felipe hasn’t played in a while. Nice guy, great match. Look forward to playing you again. " -- Paul
