- Players/teams are organised into groups of between 5 to 9 people of a similar standard
- The league is mixed sex, so men and women play each other

- In doubles teams may be any combination of gender

- 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

Player Comments:
- "The sun played a part in this match, sitting directly in the eyeline on one end of the court. I had flashbacks to playing Quincy in the first game, where I made a good deal of first serves and watched as Josh smashed them past me for clean winners. He continued to pressure me on serve and I was fortunate to save all the break points he earned against me to take the set 6-1. In the second set we stayed toe to toe, Josh even broke me for a 3-2 lead but could never find his rhythm and I continued to take the big points for another score that doesn't reflect the caliber of the opposition, 6-3. Thanks for a great match Josh (and the lift!)" -- Jamie
Reveal CommentJamie Cowie bt Ireo Ostacchini (Jun 11) 6-4, 7-5
Player Comments:
- "Off to a bad start... I went to Highbury instead of Finsbury! Ireo was very understanding as I showed up a couple of minutes after 7. With no floodlights, the ever present threat of rain and darkening sky it felt like the match was unlikely to be completed, especially as neither of us managed to hold serve until we reached 4 games all (we blame the wind). I managed to hold and break again for a 6-4 win. The second set continued as we struggled to hold serve (and tackle the ever-so-slight slope) - Ireo covers the court will and I rarely found empty space. Ireo was the first to get ahead, breaking me at 4-all to take a 5-4 lead. I got through that game and clung onto my serve to take the set and the match 7-5. Thanks for a great match!" -- Jamie
Reveal CommentJamie Cowie bt Alex Hicks (Jun 10) 6-1, 6-2

- "On a day of downpours it was touch and go whether we even played - with 15 minutes to go before we started we just decided to go for it! The rain held off and the courts weren't too slippy and it made for some good tennis. Alex pulled off some good passing shots and I was lucky to get some errors which I don't are typical of his game." -- Jamie

Player Comments:
- "An epic battle, 2 1/2 hours on a soggy court. Matt didn't stop running about and retrieving the ball, which I think is cheating really - where I thought I'd made a few winners, back the ball would come! The conditions were far from ideal being rather slippery (note to self don't wear expensive new trainers in slippery conditions, wear cheap old indoor trainers instead) & rainy, but Matt certainly coped better than I did in the first set. A change of footwear led to a better grip in the 2nd set and all round happiness, but Matt gave nothing away. I took the first 4 games comfortably but then Matt up'd his game and I could feel that set slipping away. Literally. Thanks for a great game Matt!" -- Sarah

- " This was a very enjoyable match the weather was very windy but the first one to use the wind to their advantage would win the game set and match, we figure this out by the end of the first set and there was no looking back form that point on would, our opponent played well and I am sure they will win more matches." -- Anthony

Player Comments:
- "Fatemeh and I got off to a slow start, both being a bit nervey while Jenny and Richard got off to a flyer with lovely ground strokes and Jenny putting away some lovely vollies which helped them establish a big lead. We managed to start to get our way back into the set and got to a tie break which was nervy on all sides but we got over the line. Was great fun, always a pleasure to play Jenny and Richard. Good luck to them in their next matches." -- Alan

- "An enjoyable match on a nice evening. Gerard served really well this evening and hit some lovely ground strokes which helped keep us on top in the match. Eric's first serve is a decent weapon but unfortunately for him not enough went in tonight. Ricardo creates some tricky angles with his shots, pushing you out wide. Enjoyable fun." -- Alan

- "Alan and Gerard really tested out metal this evening. In a gruelling 3-setter where we had the upper hand in the first set, and we weren't really in the same court during the second ...the game really got going in the 3rd set where cheek by jowl we nudged a victory . Gerard made some incredible volleys and Alan was poised throughout, almost faultlessly consistent and ready to exploit any weakness in our game. Thoroughly enjoyable ...look forward to the next time.

- "Simon and I got off to a good start and took advantage of Helen and Rafael's new doubles partnership. However this settling in period ended quite abruptly and we soon found ourselves 4-0 down in the second set. Rafael covered every inch of the court with some amazing gets meanwhile Helen stayed steady and played mighty forehand after forehand. Somehow we managed to pull ourselves together and came back to take the second set however it really could have gone either way. A really enjoyable evening of tennis ...thank you " -- Caroline

Player Comments:
- "Wow! That was a tussle. Some rain interruption in the first hour meant we were neck and neck at 1 set each when our 2 hours were over.Luckily we were able to nab an empty court and continue. The third set was incredibly close with most of the games going to multiple multiple deuces. Vicky and I were lucky to nab the crucial points. The boys had us scrambling with their lobs and slices and consistent wily play - but Vicky was a gazelle around the back and a tiger at the net. Many thanks for a great game, guys. As with the last time, very good fun and very close. xx" -- Poonam
