CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS 2024

Members can participate in any of the following events.

Depending on the number of entries the events will be run in Division’s 1 & 2

• Singles, Men’s or Ladies Doubles & Mixed Doubles in your current grading. You can choose your own partner or grading committee will try and find a partner for individual entries

• Special Men’s or Ladies Doubles & Mixed Doubles. Only individual entries are taken, and the players are paired with the top-rated player partnering the lowest rated player, then working inwards to pair the other combinations.
