Aegon Summer County Cup The 15 / 15 Club The Aegon Summer County Cup is a traditional, annual inter-county team event consisting exclusively of doubles. It is played on grass, usually during the third week of July. As most followers of County Week know, this is top quality, hard fought tennis with the pride of playing for one’s county at stake; for many this is the pinnacle of their tennis careers. Over the course of the week a county team plays a maximum of 45 rubbers, ie. 9 rubbers per day. As shown on the table below, assuming a player competes in every rubber, it is possible for him/her to win 15 out of 15 rubbers - an exceptional achievement! County Week data was computerised in 2010 and, unfortunately, records of anyone accomplishing the 15 out of 15 milestone prior to this date are incomplete. However, if you know of anyone who has done so, we would like to update our records so please e-mail [email protected]. Thank you. NB: 2011 to 2013 inclusive Ladies Groups 5a to 7 were held over 3 days.
