Our new web site

Monday, March 31st, 2008

Welcome to the new web site.  We hope it adds to your enjoyment of league tennis.  Please note that this is an additional  communication channel and will not replace the regular results e-mail .

You will see that some areas are more finished than others - for instance, we have only posted club contact details where the individual has authorised it so, if your club has no details, please let us know what to post. 

We welcome any feedback, ideas or information for posting on the site.  We  intend to change the photo on the home page regularly so please send  any (tennis related) photo for consideration.  Perhaps we could aim to include a photo of every club over the course of a year.

All feedback to website@swindontennisleague.org.uk

2008 diary dates

Monday, March 31st, 2008

This year’s Presentation Evening will be hosted by Purton TC on Saturday 18th October.  We hope that each club will buy at least four tickets - it’s always a great evening, and the more clubs that make up parties the better.  More details will follow later in the season.

The AGM is not quite as much fun but we still hope every club will be represented.  It will be held on Tuesday 18th November at 7.30pm at The Bell, Ramsbury.
