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.
- Where possible, winners of groups are promoted to the group above for the next round.

Reveal CommentAlastair Paul bt Neel Das (Apr 23) 6-1, 6-1
Player Comments:
- "Score flattered me. Neel has all the shots technically but due to lack of recent matches his shots were just missing the lines whereas I've managed to play regularly all winter. Happy with the way I played and the clay surface appears to suit my game. The rally for the first point of the match was immense with drop shots, lobs, volleys, everything. Good luck with the remaining matches." -- Alastair

Not the moment of victory you want but until that point it was a great match with some really intense rallies on a beautiful day, and great to get back in the swing of things again! Nikki I hope your hip isn’t too sore and you recover to play the rest of your matches! " -- William

Player Comments:
- "Good match with Ibrahim on a lovely sunny, though somewhat breezy, Wednesday evening. Neither of us shone in our service games: Ibrahim's serve was beset by double faults, while mine suffered more from some great court coverage and aggressive play from my opponent that kept upsetting my game plan. I just managed to hold key service games by the skin of my teeth in both sets. If Ibrahim had mastered his serve gremlins I suspect the scoreline would have been much more one sided in his favour. Thanks for a great match and all the best in your other games." -- Gordon
