The North Devon Tennis League is returning for a full season of Ladies' and Men's doubles action once again for the first time since 2019.

Last year, the league arranged a half season with only one fixture against each club in the division. This year sees a return of a home and away match against each opposing team.

We have entered 2 Ladies' and 3 Men's teams. The Ladies teams are in Divisions 1 and 2, whilst our Men's teams are in Divisions 1, 2 and 3. We had some fantastic results and final positions last year, with our Ladies' A team coming runners up in the first division, whilst our Mens' C teams won Division 3.

The LTA's online League Planner will be used again, having been introduced in the last full season before lockdown. All captains have the club's login details and can enter/validate scores electronically. All members of the public can see the league tables and our teams' names in lights! The League Planner website also gives detailed performance statistics on each of the players participating in the leagues and can be useful for the captains when planning fixtures.

We have not entered a vets' team this season. If you're over 50 years young and would like to think about a team for next year, please just let any of the Committee know.

Entry forms for all cup competitions will be sent out later in the season.

Everyone previously involved in the local league tennis scene know that it caters for all skill levels and is a huge amount of fun. If you're at all interested in turning for one of the teams, please contact Ruth Holman or Graham Ward.
