What is Winter League?

For those of you who don’t know Winter League is an interclub competition run by the Munster Branch of Tennis Ireland. The competition runs from October until approximately March.  The format varies slightly depending on grade, most grades are doubles events. Club teams of 4 players are created per grade. In the first round, the team is in a group of approximately 4 Munster clubs. The team plays each of the other clubs both at home and away. The top teams go through to a knockout stage. Each pairing will play 2 matches when playing another club and matches are usually played on weekends (roughly every 2 weeks).  If players win matches they can earn points towards improving their grading.
