Minety Open Mixed Details
Minety Tennis Club and The Nelson Trust proudly invite players to enter their Open Mixed Tennis Tournament. The event will raise money for the club but predominantly for The Nelson Trust.
The tournament will be played on private courts in and around the village of Minety, the finals being played on the club courts. So that all standards can enjoy their tennis, the morning sessions will be seeded and played on a handicapped system. The afternoon groups will be formed based on the results of the morning session and they will compete in the Championship or Plate groups.
Morning coffee, two-course lunch, afternoon tea and cake are included in the entry fee. A bar will be open during the finals. Please note that vegetarian meal options will be available.
The Schedule
08:30 – 09:00 Registration Tea and Coffee at Minety Village Hall
09:00 – 12:00 Handicapped group stage

As there is a full morning of tennis, players should ensure they arrive promptly. Any player that arrives late may not be able to complete all their games. Players should arrive at Minety Village Hall no later than 8:45 to complete registration.
Weather permitting all players will enjoy a full day of competitive tennis.
All entries will be considered on a first come first served basis as received.
As a courtesy to the court owners, players should ensure they wear predominately white clothes and non-marking tennis shoes.
It would be worth packing a deckchair or picnic blanket, as not all courts will have sufficient seating; they will also be useful for the finals.
Numbers are limited so please book early to avoid disappointment.
If you are really struggling to find a partner then please speak to the Tournament Organiser as they may be able to find you a partner.
If you are unable to attend but would like to make a donation to The Nelson Trust it would be very much appreciated. Please contact the Tournament Organiser for details.
