Club Tournament

2023 Club Tournament

The club tournament ran from July to Finals Weekend on 16th-17th September, and beyond (for matches not played during Finals Weekend for one reason or another).

Ten events were played for:

Men's open singles
Men's open doubles
Women's open singles
Women's open doubles
Mixed open doubles
Men's veterans (over 55) open doubles
Men's handicap singles
Men's handicap doubles
Women's handicap doubles
Mixed handicap doubles

The majority of events consisted of round robin matches, with the top two finishers going straight to the final on Finals Weekend (apart from Mixed Open Doubles, where semi-finals took place). Players arranged the preliminary matches amongst themselves, with milestones being set so that events progress steadily towards the final, without there being a mad rush to play games in September.
