Winter League 2020/21

Inter Club Tournaments - Box League

Inter club tournament available for all members to enter. Round robin format with hopefully more than one group per competition with winners of the group (maybe runners up) going into Finals day on the 29th August.

​

Obliviously subject to Covid measures and depending on when we can get back onto the court and back into doubles action. All being well we can get this going and build on last years fantastic participation. Groups will be smaller this year to guarantee the completion of all matches however with multi groups per competition their is no limit on the number that can enter therefore would be great if we can beat the number of 50 participants that signed up last year. With the addition of trophies theirs hopefully more incentive for those to enter however the box league will continue the tradition of having the main aim of just getting players on court and mixing in with people that won't usually get the chance to therefore will continue to be very much a fun based tournament for all ability levels.

​

Competition will run May 1st til August 15th giving you plenty of time to fit in your matches which will roughly equate to one match a month per competition entered.

​

£2.50 per entry which will go fully towards trophies and hopefully a shield. Entries for pairs event is also £2.50 per player, when entering please stipulate who your intended partner is or if you’d like a partner at random. Please also leave your preferred contact details. Simply email to enter plus I'll get some sign up sheets printed off and placed on the noticeboard in the clubhouse.
