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!)

- 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

- "Great to play against Ben again in this new league, having played against him last time out as well. It was a very enjoyable sunny match at Princes Park - let’s hope this nice weather sticks around for all the matches! The match itself looks quite straightforward, but Ben was completely new to the sport in the last league, and whilst the score line hasn’t changed, this match was much closer than it looks. Bens serve is consistently in more often, and the backhand & lobs have improved massively. I look forward to playing again in future leagues, and best of luck with the remaining matches Ben" -- Damon
