Adult Programs
League play is provided in competitive and non-competitive formats, which may vary each season based on the preferences of the majority wishing to participate. Your league co-ordinators dilligently establish schedules and ‘placements’ so players can practise their skills, fine-tune their game, and socialize with their clubmates. Only active members may participate. An NTRP of 3.0 or higher is suggested.
Currently, members may register for 3 leagues. However, if numbers exceed court availability, it may become necessary to limit the number of events you may play in. Alternatively, league co-ordinators may implement ‘byes’ at their discretion to best accommodate everyone. A spring and summer session is planned for mixed doubles and singles. Spring session registration begins March 15 and summer session registration begins in June. There is a $10.00 fee for each session, a portion of which will be used to fund a ‘windup’ for each session. There is no charge if you wish to ‘spare only’ in any league.
Anderton Park sessions begin at 5:30pm and 7:15pm with a 15min warm-up beginning at 5:15pm and 7:00pm. Lewis Park sessions begin at 5:30 and may continue later in the evening using the lights as required.
