The
Westway Tennis League is part of a project designed to offer friendly competitive matches on local public courts.
The
idea for it began as a way to improve
our own game. We set up the first, fledging league on Highbury Fields in May 2005. It took off. Since then, hundreds of people
have taken part, made friends and got better, and we have extended the concept to many other places both in London and beyond.
The
Westway Tennis League is run in a private capacity by
We
have found that although there are plenty of leagues and ladders in clubs if you seek them out, there is not always a regular
league for players who play on one set of local public courts. Having one, we have discovered, helps build a sense of community,
puts local players in touch with each other, and gives people a way of seeing themselves improve.
Our
aim is to launch more leagues wherever there is a need, concentrating on public courts where finding opponents can be difficult.
