SOCIAL EVENTS (Entry to events and tournaments is free of charge for Members)

Season Opener Tournament -Sunday, 12th April - 10am to 1pm

The Season Opener is often the first opportunity for members to play social tennis again if they have not been playing in the Sunday morning or Wednesday night groups over the winter. It is aimed at adult members of all abilities, as long as you are able to play a set of tennis in a doubles format.

It uses a round‑robin format designed to get everyone playing together. It is usually a mixed‑doubles, rotating‑partners format. Players sign up individually and are randomly paired each round and then, after a timed interval (e.g. 15–20 minutes), rotate partners and opponents. You accumulate total games won across all rounds (rather than “matches won”), and the player(s) with the highest game‑win totals take the prizes. This makes the event fun and inclusive—everybody meets and plays with everybody else, regardless of skill level. Snacks and refreshments are provided. 

Family Fun Event - Sunday 19th April - 12.30pm  to 2.30pm

Public Open Event - Sunday 10th May 2026 - 10am to 3pm
