Belfast and District Leagues

The Belfast and District League body organizes competition at various levels and offers  challenging tennis to players of all abilities. The club believes that league tennis makes a unique contribution, both at team and individual level.

Not only do we enjoy the camaraderie of team play, but participants also testify to the learning experience that takes place during these competitive matches – all of which are played in great spirit and sportsmanship.


Last season (2009) the club entered 5 teams in the B and D league with our most successful season ever. The Mixed League and Summer League teams both won their divisions against stiff opposition. In the Ladies Evergreen section our 'A' Team were involved in a nail-biting play-off with Hilden, finally missing out on becoming league winners by only one game. The men’s Evergreen team also played home and away games with great success.
At Downpatrick Tennis Club we strongly believe in being inclusive whenever possible. Before Christmas, we invited all 2009 adult members to let us know of their interest in playing in B and D league teams. Those people who expressed an interest will be invited to take part of one or more of our teams this coming season. If you are interested in being a 'sub' on any of the teams please contact any member of the Committee.
