Bristol Central Tennis Club - First Saturday Tournament

The First Saturday Tournament is held on the first Saturday of every month (as far as possible) in the afternoon - see Club Diary for dates.
It is aimed at players with a 'social' standard of tennis.

The fun and popular 'First Saturday' mixed doubles tournaments have become a tradition at Bristol Central. All club members are welcome however the standard of play is 'social' rather than competitive, with a target audience of regular club players, stronger Improver players and older Juniors.  The format is to play with a variety of partners while keeping track of your personal 'games won' score.

The tournaments have a start time of 2.30 pm.  Please arrive at 2.15pm so you can warm-up in time to start at 2.30pm - it is helpful if everyone can arrive on time so that the Tournament can be completed within its allocated court time.  The dates are included in the Club Diary and displayed on the notice board in the clubhouse. 

If you would like to volunteer to organise a tournament then please contact Ian Dunn (see the poster in the clubhouse for more info).  You get points for organising so you won’t miss out on your tally for the year.
