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
- Matches are best of three sets; if a set reaches 6 games all it is decided by a tiebreak
- The evening before the round starts you will receive an email with all the contact details of the players in your group. Contact details are also posted to your Account Page
- Players are placed in groups according to past performance in the league and, for new players, their Player Standard Questionnaire
- Each player attempts to play each of the other player on their group once during the round
- A point is awarded for each set won
- If you complete three matches before the midpoint of a round you receive 2 bonus points and a bonus prize (either a pair of Local Tennis Leagues dampeners, or a tube of tennis balls)
- The winner of the group is the player with the most points at the end of the round
- The winner of the group wins a voucher for £20 to be spent in the Local Tennis League online shop. A winner's certificate is also posted to the winner's Account Page as a PDF file.

Player Comments:
- "Ironically, given this year's guff weather so far, this match was highly influenced by the sunshine at one end of the court. I think my Neanderthal brow protected me a little better. Our tennis was nothing to shout about but I think we both served pretty well and Kevin hit a few cracking forehands, especially in the first set. I'd imagine the error count was pretty high overall though. " -- Blair

- "Great game with Mick at Kelvingrove! Great rallies, both of us hit some great shots, unfortunately, because of the slightly windy weather both of us couldn't enhance our full level. I think I manage to clutch more of the key moments during the game which helped me as well as some decent serves. Really close game as the only difference was 1 break in each of the two sets! Should play sometimes with you again soon! --Alex" -- Aleksandar
Reveal CommentAleksandar Odaybat bt Charles Cameron (Mar 14) 3-6, 6-2, 6-1
Player Comments:
- "Great hit with Charles at Queens Park. Weather could have been nicer but we both adjust and it was all fine. The game lasted for 97 minutes as there were some great long rallies and a couple of deuces. My first game of the league wasn't to be as Charles played really solidly, I was kinda rushing and could find any rhythm while Charles made some great shots and maintained consistent level. In the second set, I have changed the game plan and started to build the points slowly without rushing and going to the net that much. Gradually I started to build confidence and eventually managed to found my forehand which was decisive. On to the third, I kept doing what I had to and turn out to close the game: 3:6, 6:1, 6:2! Hope to play again -- Alex" -- Aleksandar

Player Comments:
- "Where do I start Angus. One of the most exciting matches i have played in. I edged a closely fought firt set 6 3. Angus started serving very well and wi made amazing retrievals and deserved the 2nd set 6 3. Third set I led briefly after going a break up led by 2 1 which Angus levelled and broke and completely deserved to go ahead 4 2. I broke back only for Angus to find himself serving for the match at 5 3. I managed to break back but found myself 4 5 love 40 and got very luck on the 3rd Match point. The drama contined into game 12 at 5 6 Angus deservedly created 3 more match points and by luck, by good fortune and perhaps some experience I pulled through to a lottery of a TB. Angus deserved to win. Lady luck certainly smiled on me." -- Ewan
