Plumpton Tennis Club

Leagues
The club plays in a number of leagues. Members who like to play in a slightly more serious, competitive manner can participate in the following:

LTA League
Separate summer and winter leagues give all year round match play. There are separate leagues for men and women. Each league normally involves 4,5 or 6 matches against other Sussex clubs with some matches being played at home and some away. Teams of four players (2 pairs of 2) play two doubles rubbers each. Each rubber is the best of 3 sets with tie-breaks at 6-6.

Horam League
More relaxed than the LTA league, many members find out if competitive play is for them by playing in the Horam League. Matches against other East Sussex clubs are played on Monday evenings across the summer on a home and away basis. The dates of matches are fixed at the beginning of the season. There is also a Knock-Out tournament. Three men and three women make up a team of 6 who play one rubber each of womens doubles, mixed doubles and mens doubles. Rubbers are the best of 3 sets with tie-breaks at 6-6.

This summer, 2010, our teams are playing matches in the following divisions against the clubs shown (LTA dates subject to change):

If you want to play in any team, please contact the relevant men’s or women’s match captains (see Who’s Who).
