ADULT CLUB CALENDAR

JUNIOR CLUB CALENDAR

Throughout the year there is a wide range of tournaments on offer including singles, ladies and mens doubles and mixed doubles, for all grades. Some tournaments you can choose your own partner (or if you don’t have a partner the club will choose one for you), other tournaments you are given a partner. You can earn points to move up grades for most tournaments. It is very important that you READ THE RULES AND REGULATIONS (posted on the main noticeboard in the club) for each tournament as they vary for each tournament and it is your responsibility to know them – ignorance is not a defence!
The following is a list of the various tournaments run in the club during the year.
