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.

Player Comments:
- "What can only be described as a 3 1/4 hour epic game of tennis - there was really nothing between us. With the exception of a few games every match went to multiple deuces with every point being a hard fought slog. Craig is a great player, very little seperated us from the first point to the end.. Will definately play again (once we've both recovered) and it wouldnt suprise me if the score line was reserved. Great game Craig, well played - lee" -- Lee

Player Comments:
- "What a match! The scoreline belies the real quality of the match. Many deuces and the match could have gone either way. Thanks Marc. I look forward to playing you again. " -- Bolan
Player Comments:
- "What an absolute epic! Had to play this match over two days since we ran out of time/light! Lots of brutal rallies that left us exhausted by the end of it. Great meeting you Bolan, hope we play again soon!" -- Kabir
Player Comments:
- "Good to play Helinda. Aggressive hitter so short balls were getting punished! The final set was really tight and glad it didn't go to a third." -- Randeep
Player Comments:
- "Really good to play Marc. The match was very close and probably hinged on a few key games and points. Today lady luck was on my side. Marc hits a great forehand with plenty of power and punished the short balls and with a tricky serve. He was also great at running down drop shots with plenty of time to hit a good shot once he got there. He is quick and anticipates well! Would be great to play again at some point, cheers for the match. " -- Randeep
Player Comments:
- "Could of gone either way. Close match and tight games. Another day and scores could easily of been reversed. Bolan made quick starts to both sets so I had to hang in there a bit. A fun competitive match." -- Randeep
Player Comments:
- "Very good match. Thanks for playing Hellinda. It was good to play you again. " -- Bolan
Player Comments:
- "Great to play Hellinda again on a surprisingly sunny day. We played some excellent rallies and was often caught short by her tricky cross court shots. Look forward to next time" -- Marc
Player Comments:
- "A great yet tiring match with Kabir. The first set was full on with long rallies and hard shots. Second set was close as neither wanted a 3rd!! Always a pleasure Kabir and look forward to next time." -- Marc
Player Comments:
- "Great to meet Hellinda again! She found a couple of extra gears in the second set and saved atleast 8 match points! Tremendous composure under pressure! Look forward to next time!" -- Kabir
Player Comments:
- "Always lovely playing Steven. He made an impressive comeback after being 1-5 down in the first set to take it to the tiebreak. The second set was close as well despite the score. Well played. Look forward to next time!" -- Kabir
Player Comments:
- "Really good match. Exhausting and consistent hitting and returning from both meant not many cheap points were won!" -- Randeep
