With the new format of Club Championships running really smoothly, there are some important changes for those involved in all doubles events in regards to format and timelines.
After seeing how many matches are still needing to play in the round robin, the Club Championship Referees have made the decision to remove semi-finals for some Events and extend the period for round robin matches to occur.
The following Events that are affected:
- Men’s Doubles
- Ladies Doubles
- Mixed Doubles
- Boys Doubles
- Junior Mixed Doubles
For these events the round robin period will be extended until 24th November with only the top two teams moving through to play a grand final during the finals period of 25th November – 7th December.
All Singles events have not altered and still need to be finished by Sunday 10th November where possible.
Please also remember that all fees are to be paid before the end of the tournament. Each fee is payable for each event you are entered in. All fees need to be paid to the Club by either Electronic Funds Transfer (EFT) or by placing money in the box in the Club House.
- If paying by EFT please put your name and Club Champs or CC in the Reference field.
- If paying in the Club please ensure you name is written on the envelope clearly and include Club Champs.

The Doutta Galla Club Championships have been a big success over the years and last year the club saw the re-introduction of the Women’s Open Singles for the first time in a long time. This hadn’t been played for almost 10 years due to insufficient numbers.
As a Committee we would like to continue to see the Club Championships grow to be bigger and better than ever. To do that we are inviting the members to provide feedback on a wide range of things including the format of matches, timing throughout the year and even the prizes at the end.
