Welcome to the Clapham Common Tennis League!
The first Mixed Doubles round is now underway and will run until 15 November,
2009
The autumn round of the singles (round 5) is also running and will continue until
15 November
The next round (round 6) will run from Monday 18 January to Sunday 14
March, 2010. The deadline to join is Monday 11 January. If you would like to play, just go to the Join Now page
If you haven't played before, this is how it works:
- It is a mixed (men
and women) singles league
- It's open to any one
over the age of 18
- It doesn't matter what
standard you are. It's open to all, from beginners to advanced
- It’s divided
into groups of about 6 players of similar ability
- Everyone in their group
plays everyone else on the courts at Clapham Common less another venue suits both parties
- Matches are the best
of three tie break sets (allow 2 hours per match)
- It’s up to everyone
to arrange their own matches
- You get one point for every set you win
- The WINNERS of
each group receive a £20 prize
- You get a FREE can
of balls and two bonus points if you complete three matches by the half way point
- At the end of the round, where
possible, two players go up, two go down and two stay put. For those who want to, it then starts again with a new round.
- It costs £10 to join
each round (this does not include the cost of the courts)

The League and LTA RatingsIn theory we would like this to be an
LTA rated league - and for those who have ratings already we will submit qualifying results.
However, the membership review at the LTA makes getting a new rating now a complicated business. If you are interested, keep
an eye on the LTA's website (http://www.lta.org.uk/)
