- 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

- 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

Alex, very fast atound the court sent many balls back I thought I’d seen the last of, often as winners. At the end, a few slightly over-hit balls from my opponent enabled me to wrap it up on my serve. Thanks, Alex, looking forward to another competitive encounter soon." -- Peter

- "Really hard fought competitive match with a lot of good, long rallies. I won’t want to be on the receiving end of Chris’s serve once he gets his eye in that’s for sure. In the end I had one of my more consistent matches and as our club coach always reminds us, matches are more often won by the player that makes the least mistakes rather than the player who hits the most winners.

- "It is now 2-1 in matches between Pippa and me. Last time, in very different conditions, Pippa really got her backhand going and was unstoppable. This time we both found the damp surface tricky with fast balls skidding off low. More consistent serving and fewer wild ground strokes helped me stay ahead in the 1st but Pippa took a 4-2 lead in the 2nd, placing the ball to ensure I didn’t succumb to the flood-lit evening chill. I tried to regain the initiative with some more aggressive hitting and got on a roll though it could easily have gone to a third set with the score at 4-5. Thanks Pippa, looking forward to our next contest, hopefully in warmer, drier, lighter conditions." -- Peter

Player Comments:
- "Brendan connected well quickly and took an early lead. This made it and uphill battle from the beginning. Fortunately I went on a hot streak and was able to pip him to the set. The second was as close right up to the final two games which I was able to win after two very long deuce games. Very enjoyable game, we both had to adapt to the adverse windy weather conditions which seemed to begin and end sporadically. Thanks for the game Brendan." -- Jumaane

Player Comments:
- "Great game which I found I started well as I was well warmed up, this allowed me to get an early break and take the first set. Once Kate began to find her rhythm I struggled to find an answer to some of the great shots she was producing especially when she got her first serve in. The second set could have gone either way, fortunately my drop shots were getting over the net which I think helped me clinch the second. Thanks again Kate!" -- Jumaane

Player Comments:
- "Kate and I always have competitive matches and this one was well-fought in friendly fashion, though we agreed it wasn't vintage. The low sun on a beautiful morning meant that eight of the first nine games were won from the shaded end. Thereafter we adapted better and though it was a two-setter, we were on court for over 90 minutes. Cheers, Kate. Till our next encounter . . ." -- Brendan

Close first set in which Brendan got an early break but I managed to break back and go on to win the first set. As the match went on I got wiser to Brendan's drop shots and was quicker to the net which helped to make it a win for me and now 1:1 in our mini-series!

Player Comments:
- "Isobel and I only appear to play when Mother Nature is in a grump... a combination of very blustery conditions with wind playing havoc with attempting regulation shots and a low sun at one end meant another cacophonous encounter between us (but not as loud as the guy a couple of courts away!!?). A very even first set which lasted an hour which could have gone either way - some thoroughly enjoyable rallies & very few double faults from either of us despite the howling winds. The second set was all about staying consistent and I was fortunate to have come through it unscathed - Great to play again and 6-0 is in no way a reflection of your skills. Both your forehand and backhand are a very powerful weapons!" -- Javier
