Winter League

The club has entered three teams in the North East Club Winter League for the 2025/26 season.

Each team for a match consists of two women and two men. Play begins with a women's doubles and a men's doubles played over two sets.  Then there are two mixed doubles, also played over two sets.

The matches are scheduled by the League and these nearly always fall on a Sunday morning at 10.30.

Group matches are played from October to January, then knockout matches are played in February and March, with a view to a finale and presentation day on 29th March 2026.

If you would like to play in these, please contact the one of the team captains.

Note that the organisers of the Winter League are pushing to have all players registered as LTA Advantage members, and through this membership to have a WTN (World Tennis Number).  Instructions for becoming an LTA Advantage member, if you're not already a member, and obtaining a WTN are laid out in this document.
