TennisUK is delighted to announce that our winter competition programme is now published and features many events and tournaments between now and the end of January 2011.
Firstly, we would like to welcome David Lloyd Southampton to the TennisUK SuperSeries programme. David Llloyd Southampton will be staging their first SupeSeries tournament in January 2011. Please read on for further details.
Over 200 one-day matchplay events have been scheduled between October 2010 and the end of January 2011 at Sutton, Hatfield, Southampton and the LTA National Tennis Centre in Roehampton on both indoor and outdoor courts. All events take place at the weekends in the afternoons and evenings. Matchplay events are run in several age groups and provide an excellent means of match practice for both adults and juniors against opponents of similar standard. Results are submitted to the LTA for ratings purposes for all Tennis UK matchplays.com events.
Matchplay events tend to be very popular in the winter, so an early application is recommended. Please remember that you may cancel any application without charge up to the published cancellation deadlines (4:00pm on the Tuesday prior to each event). Players and parents are reminded that applying for multiple events on the SAME DAY (within the Tennis UK matchplays.com programme) IS permitted – our system ensures that no player can be selected for more than one matchplay event/venue per day. Players submitting multiple applications stand a far greater chance of selection.
Applications are also being taken for the following tournaments in November, December and January:
