The Eastbourne International Tennis Centre is home to the Devonshire Park Lawn Tennis Club - the venue for tournament tennis since 1880. This year the club has once again pleasure in inviting applications for their grade 3 LTA ratings and rankings tournament running from Monday 6th to Saturday 11th August.

The club is delighted that the tournament has once again been classified by the LTA as a regional level competition (grade 3) and we are pleased to confirm that Tennis Services UK Limited have been appointed to manage the tournament in 2012.

The tournament offers a rare chance for players to take part in matches on some of the top grass courts in the tennis world – play will take place on the same courts used for the AEGON Mens and Ladies professional event in June.The tournament is open to all British Tennis Members and includes singles and doubles events for adult and junior players of all ages and standards, in addition to Mens 21 & under and Mens 35 & over singles categories. A separate 10&U mini-tennis GREEN event will be held from Thursday to Saturday too.

We shall also be staging mini-red (8&U) and mini-orange (9&U) events, although these will take place at a separate indoor venue (Eastbourne Sports Park), a few miles away from the main Devonshire Park Club.

Eastbourne is also one of the UK’s leading seaside towns with many attractions for people of all ages including bars, restaurants, museums, art galleries, castles, parks and gardens, not to mention the world famous Beachy Head, just a few miles from the town centre.

We welcome your application and look forward to seeing you playing at Devonshire Park.

Chairman
Devonshire Park Lawn Tennis Club
