Congratulations to everyone who made a Winter league team and apologies to anyone that didn’t.
It’s a very hard process picking a team and a lot of variables come into play so thanks to The People involved in helping select the teams.

Winter League Phase 1
Munster Tennis’s Phase 1 of WL is likely to kick off in late October. Our plan is to try and pick teams before the start of the closed so that teams can have some practice time in October. For those not familiar it’s a team competition of 4 players and you play other teams from Munster during Oct/Nov/Dev mostly on a Sunday. We do expect there to be a singles element so please indicate when putting your name forward if you wish to play singles or not. Please enter your name or any inquiries to - selectioncommittee@carrigalinetennisclub.com
