BLTC Easter Hunt Internal Senior League (Info & Sign Up)
The Social Events Team have come up with a fun social league for members of ALL abilities and levels.
This is to kick off the start of spring, while looking to celebrate Easter.
The Senior Easter Hunt League will see Ballymena LTC members play mixed doubles matches in a box league format.
The league will officially start on Thursday 20th March, which is when spring is set to start on the meteorological calendar.
The last day to complete the league will be Saturday 26th April where the club will look to host a friendly social Easter tournament for ALL senior club members (details of this will be given nearer the time).
This Easter Hunt League couldn’t be any easier to commit to. Details can be found below….
🐣 Players will be placed into a box league consisting of 4-5 teams of a similar level.
🐣 Players can enter as a team, or if you wish we can assign you a partner.
🐣 Players have 6 weeks to play 3-4 mixed doubles matches.
🐣 Each mixed league match will last 1 Hour, meaning members are committing to no more than 3-4 hours tennis in this 6 week period of time. This will suit those with a busy schedule.
🐣 The idea behind the format/time frame is that players could play a 1 hour match per week, however that does not need to happen, players can work around with what suits the schedule of those in their box.
🐣When your groups are created, Barry will create a WhatsApp for your box group to arrange your matches.
🐣You are more than welcome to play more than one match a week if this helps the league get completed.
🐣 This league will be completed during club time, so members wont have to commit to any additional times.
🐣 A 5 minute warm up is all that is allowed, then 55 minutes of play. If a player arrives 5 minutes late, the match will just have to continue, and they forfeit their warm up.
🐣Players will play 40 minutes of normal games, with advantage etc. For the last 15 minutes they will play a championship tiebreaker (First to 10 points). The winner of this tiebreaker will add an additional game to their score.
🐣The winner is the team with the most games won at the completion of the match. The team will give in their score to Barry, as in the event of a draw, at the end of the box league, the number of games won count.
🐣This is a perfect social league for everyone in club to play. It’s for both our league players and social players. It’s ideal for those who are for playing in our mixed and evergreen leagues, along with our social players who love playing with each other in the evening.
🐣The winners of each box will receive a luxury Easter egg for their endeavours!
🐣 Members have one week to sign up - entry closes Monday 10th March @ 9:00pm
🐣 Easter Hunt League Boxes and WhatsApp Groups will be created for Monday 17th March.
🐣 League organisers would advise when put into your group to schedule your 3-4 matches that need to be played over the 6 week period, ASAP. This ensures everyone can put into their diary the day/hour that needs to be kept free, while finding days/times that suit their box.
