It is an open singles competition, with no handicaps. Each match played will comprise of one short set – the winner will be the first to reach 4 games. It will be a round robin format, so everyone will get to play at least three short sets.
There will be a range of ability levels, young and old, so whilst participants will get the chance to test themselves against the club’s best players, there will also be some less challenging matches.
