Men, on the other hand, play two sets of men’s doubles and two sets of mixed doubles with the same female partner. This medley format makes for a more sociable atmosphere though play is still competitive. Teams comprise 4 players. This is an open format however and teams may comprise any mix and men and women.
Matches will be played weekday evenings under floodlights at Maryport.
Match fees are £6 per player per match to cover the cost of lights and balls, 'home' teams provide the balls on the night.
