It has been a good round despite the ongoing cold, with lots of matches played and a tight group to keep things exciting!

Thank you all for supporting the league. We are, as ever, very grateful for the hard work you put in scheduling your matches and for your efforts on court. There are now over 50 local leagues up and down the country and players like you are making a real difference to grass roots tennis in the UK.

The next round starts on Monday March 12 and runs until May 6.

Many thanks to all those who have already joined, and if you haven’t, but would like to, the deadline is Friday March 9. As usual, players who have done well will be promoted (usually the winner of a group, but often the runner up too when it has been close).

You can pay by paypal here.

GROUP ONE
Winner: Ovid Hinds
In truth, Ovid blew away the competition in round 7, losing just a single game in three wins, and he takes the group by 4 points. Nevertheless, Kaleem kept him honest, winning a couple of matches himself, while Riju picked up a late victory over Rajeshri. Well done to Ovid, who was ruthless - in the nicest possible way - throughout, and he is very deserving of the winner's prizes.
The winners will be receiving their £20 prizes and certificates and we do hope to welcome you all back next time.

Mid way point for 2 bonus points and a FREE tube of tennis balls is: Monday 26 December 2011

Ovid Hinds bt Fiona Lewis (Nov 28) 6-0, 6-0 ""Yes, well played to Ovid, a delightful player and a master of the game, although due to Ovid’s stature and power serves, I had no option but to sportingly concede, it’s not at all surprising the result turned out this way. If anyone else is up against Ovid, be prepared to put as much power as you can into the game," Fiona
