RULES
1. The
object is to play enjoyable tennis.
2. Players must be the relevant age by December
31st.
3. Each team consists of two couples, who play two
tie-break sets against both opposition couples. Spin
to decide which round comes first. Away couples stay
on the same court.
4. Matches start at 10 am.
SUNDAYS
5. New scoring system: one point per set won. This
means (a) every set counts and (b) it is worth
turning out even if you can raise only 1 couple -
you can still get up to 4 points. Games difference
will be used if teams are equal on points at the end
of the season.
6. Minus 3 points for giving a walkover. Walkovers
damage leagues by giving free points to the
undeserving.
7. Promotion and relegation: basically three up and
three down, but this may be adjusted if different
teams or different numbers of teams enter next year.
8. Rearrangements: if one club is involved in a
superior (e.g. LTA or SLTA) competition, their
opponents must agree to a rearrangement. In line
with Rule 1 above, all clubs are asked to agree to
rearrangements requested for other reasons, if
reasonable notice is given. Matches rained off
completely should be rearranged. If a match is
rained off in the middle, scores up to that point
count. Captains can agree to split uncompleted/unplayed
sets if they wish, but either side may ask to play
the balance of the match from the score reached -
with the same players if possible or substitutes if
not.
9. Results: the home team is responsible for sending
the result by post or e-mail to the Veterans' League
Secretary:
Nick Alexander, 3 West Hatton, Kirknewton,
Midlothian EH27 8DZ. 0131-333 4636
nha@globalnet.co.uk
10. Contact and communication: before the Leagues
begin, please send the Veterans' League Secretary
(a) a contact name and phone number for each team,
for circulating to other teams, and (b) one or more
e-mail addresses for each club, to which running
League tables can be sent. Tables will also be
posted on the website.
