Junior and adult

Taking part is easy

  • You organise a tennis event in your school, club or wherever there are courts available.
  • We provide all the materials and winners' incentives you need and our regional tennis coordinators offer advice and support.
  • Players fundraise to make a difference to vulnerable children around the world.

Hold a boys' or girls' doubles event for juniors or a ladies' or mixed doubles event for adults. Or any combination of these.

Arrange the format to suit you - from knockout matches to a box system.

A minimum of eight pairs need to play in your event for a place in the Regional Finals. Or just organise a fun tennis event and don't send your winners to the Regional Finals.

This is a tournament for ordinary players so encourage everyone to take part!

(Juniors are those aged 13 or under on 1 September 2008 and must have an LTA rating no better than 8.2 on 1 April 2008. Adults are anyone over the age of 13 on 1 September 2008. Read the tournament rules PDF 9KB)

Adult and junior Regional Finals will be held across the country in September 2008.

Winners from the regional finals will be invited to play at the UK National Finals held at the prestigious National Tennis Centre at Roehampton on 4 October 2008.

We'll support you all the way!
