- Players must be member of MTC.
- Players must state their willingness & availability.
- A player's previous & current playing level, experience & results.
- The level a player has competed at in the East of Scotland leagues.
- Attendance & development at match practice & squad sessions is essential. Attendance at club coaching sessions is recommended but not a pre-requisite.
- The Head Coach's opinion of a player's abilities.
- The Team Captain's opinion of a player's abilities.
- The commitment of a player to be part of the MTC teams.
- Adherence to Team Code of Conduct.
There is also an expectation that players who represent MTC demonstrate a level of participation in club social tennis and events.
