EVENTS

During the course of the year we hold a number of social/fundraising events. These are essential to the running, maintenanece and development of our club & facilities. We hope that these provide an opportunity for members, their friends & family and our residential neighbours/community to participate in wider Club activities. Please see the Events tab for this years planned event. 

COMPETITIVE TENNIS

There are opportunities to take part in competitive tennis all year round. We have club tournaments, team tennis in the Cleveland & NEWCL competitive leagues.

In the Cleveland Summer Leagues we enter 1 Ladies and 3 Mens teams and 1 Mixed team. We also take part in the Cleveland Autumn Leagues, Veteran's (over 45) League & North East Winter Club League.  If you would like further information please contact either our Ladies or Mens A team captains. 

To take part in league tennis you must attend relevant team practice sessions, be selected by the team captain and pay match fees.

LEAGUE PLATFORM (LP)

The Cleveland League & NEWCL both use the LTA's league planner platform. Team Captains submit player names & match scores online and the system produces up to date results and tables. Players can also track their own league performace and rankings.   

Team players MUST sign up for LTA Advantage membership AND register for a WTN number. It is completely free but if you do not do this you will NOT be able to play league matches. A WTN number is like a golf handicap. Everyone gets a ranking between 1 (highest) and 40 (lowest) based on the information you enter. League results go towards this ranking. Please view the following guide on how to do this on the lta.org.uk website https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W1jbPD68-Cc
