Padel Leagues start

Good morning everyone,

With the popularity of Padel we have been inundated with requests from existing members and from the many new members who have joined the club for the introduction of Padel leagues.

We have listened and I am pleased to announce the first padel leagues will commence 4th August and run until 11th September.

There are 14 leagues in total comprising of 60 doubles pairings. As we are all new to the sport it may take time for us all to find our level and which league is appropriate for us.

The Padel doubles leagues results can be entered via the mycourts app (under leagues) or manually on the sheets displayed on the Padel notice board at the end of the bar. Alongside this the scoring rules will be displayed.The leagues and rules will also be displayed on the Padel notice board next to the Padel courts.

Don't forget members' contact details are displayed under the members directory section on the mycourts app. If your details are not showing please change the settings in Your settings in My Courts or speak to reception for more help.

See you all on court.

John Bartlett
Chairman
