Tennis Ladders

Singles and doubles ladders offer opportunities for competitive social tennis through much of the year, apart from May through to October when Summer League matches are on. If you wish to take part, please contact the following organisers for more information and to be included. You can enter either ladder as an individual. Once set up, ladders are organised through whatsapp groups.

Doubles Karen Walker 07779 076629 Played over a 3/4 week period. 4 players in a mixed group. They arrange to play together in one session at their convenience. 3 doubles sets are played so that each player plays with a different partner during the session. Sets are played to 4 with a tie-break at 3 all. Winners move up, losers move down in the next period.

Mix-in Club Sessions

Club sessions are organised so that any member can turn up and mix in. These weekly sessions are open to all adult members who want to play social tennis and just turn up and play. They are especially helpful to new members and are a great way to get to know others. Whatsapp is used for messages about reduced court availability or contacting others. Please contact the session organisers for more information or to join the WhatsApp groups.

In addition members are free to organise their own games with groups of friends and can book available courts at times to suit the group.
