The Finsbury Park Tennis League begins . We hope it will become a regular feature of Finsbury Park, with three
or four rounds a year, each lasting a couple of months.
The idea for a local league began at Highbury Fields, our home patch in north London where we set up one in May 2005
(
http://highburyfieldstennis.tripod.com/) The original idea came from Sally’s coach, as a way to improve her game (always a difficult task!). Since then, it
has helped hundreds of players find tennis partners and play regular competitive matches.
Although part of the fee for each round contributes to administration, the league is not designed to make a profit -
it is spent on running costs, free balls for playing a certain number of matches by a deadline, cash prizes for group winners
and from time to time special coaching sessions or social events.
The Finsbury Park Tennis League is run by
