County and district leagues are hugely popular across Great Britain and it is estimated that around 100,000 players compete in local leagues.  Events are run for juniors, adults and seniors with varying levels of playing standards with team sizes ranging from 4 to 6 players. 

The league format is decided by the league organiser and/or league committee with home and away fixtures played over winter and summer seasons. Predominantly the leagues are doubles-based although a number of junior leagues in particular run singles and doubles formats.
