The next season of the local interclub NET League tennis competition is set to commence on 16 or 23 August.
Organisers say, ‘Building on the success of our inaugural season, this new chapter brings even more opportunity for players and clubs across the region. Most notably, we’re expanding the competition to include a third division’.
Clubs in the competition include Ballina, Bangalow, Brunswick Heads, Byron Bay, Suffolk Park, Mullumbimby, Tintenbarand Wollongbar/Alstonville.
The divisions are now: A Grade – Premier Level, (singles and doubles format) designed for advanced club players and emerging talent;
B Grade – Competitive Development, ideal for intermediate players seeking regular match play in a structured, team-based setting; and the new C Grade – a new social doubles division for casual or social players. All matches in NET League will follow a round-robin format, with 3 sets played between 4 players per team (with 6-12 players per team including reserves).
No team? No problem
If you’re keen to participate but don’t yet have a team or you need more information, feel free to reach out to a club representative from your local club, and NET League say they will do their best to place you.
