Junior Tournament
The Rye Junior Tournament is held over three days in early August every year and comprises Boys’ Singles, Girls’ Singles, Boys’ Doubles, Girls’ Doubles and Mixed Doubles. An enormous amount of time and effort goes into the preparation of the grass courts and the Club regrets that tournament fees are not refundable. For a report on the 2011 event, see
Annual Tournament Results. This year's tournament runs from 8th-10th August. Contact Cathy Bingham on cattybing@btinternet.com.
