    LTA National League (Formerly Team Tennis) Competition History (Including National Open Roll of Honour)

    LTA National League (formerly Team Tennis) Competition History (including National Open Roll of Honour) Over the past 24 years, the competition has grown thanks to commitment from the LTA and major support from sponsors such as Everest, Prince, KIA Motors and Aegon. Through the seventeen years, the competition has grown to include over 6,000 teams (2019) from 8&U through to Open (adult) age groups. Pre 1993 The Puma Cup The Puma Cup was a competition that was run up until 1992 and was the competition which provided the teams for the inaugural National Club League to be established in 1993. In 1992, all teams competing in the Puma Cup were given information on the new National Club League and the structure it would take. This meant that for the first time, counties ran leagues in the Puma Cup which was a requirement to qualify teams into the National Club League. 1993 – 1995 Everest National Club League In 1993, the Lawn Tennis Association decided to launch the National Club League in conjunction with sponsors at the time, Everest Home Improvements. The aim of the competition was to involve 10,000 competitors from nearly 1,000 clubs in raising standards and the general level of interest in the sport. The National Club League Premier Division involved 12 teams in 2 leagues of 6 with Regional leagues supporting this. NATIONAL OPEN MENS WINNERS 1993 – Banbury West End, Oxfordshire beat Royal Berkshire 1994 – Castle Farm beat David Lloyd Raynes Park 1995 – David Lloyd Bushey beat Winchester Tennis & Squash Club NATIONAL OPEN LADIES WINNERS 1993 – Holcombe Brook, Lancashire beat Winchester Tennis & Squash Club 1994 – Clearview, Essex beat Bramhall Park, Cheshire 1995 – The Queens Club, London beat Holcombe Brook, Lancashire 1996 – 1998 Prince National Club League The opening three years of the competition brought together some of the top players in Great Britain and from around the world.

    Andy Murray Articles 2006-2008|

    ANDY MURRAY ARTICLES 2006-2008 | In 2006 Andy Murray began his voyage into World top 20 Tennis players. Starting with a tame Australian Open campaign which led to a strained relationship with the bullish British press. His first ATP tour title in San Jose beating two Former Grand Slam Champions along the way. While a rather upsetting coaching split and a trouncing of the World number 1 filled a year where progress was there for the tennis public to see but attitude and off court issues usually filled the journalists copy. 2006 Scrappy Murray prevails after sluggish start By Neil Harman, Tennis Correspondent Published at 12:00AM, January 4 2006 HIS first match of 2006 reassured Andy Murray’s followers yesterday that the element of his game that stands him in such stead as a professional of rare promise — his love of a scrap — is undimmed. From every standpoint, Murray’s defeat of Paolo Lorenzi, an Italian qualifier, in the first round of the Next Generation Adelaide International, was exactly the kind of thrash in the dark of which these first-week events are chock-full. He served seven aces, six double faults, broke serve seven times in 12 attempts, lost his own service three times and won the final five games. The one statistic to matter was a 3-6, 6-0, 6-2 victory and a place in the second round today against Tomas Berdych, a player being touted every bit as fiercely in his native Czech Republic as Murray is in Britain. Berdych’s last defeat was against Murray in the second round of the Davidoff Swiss Indoors in Basle in October, after which the Scot was almost buried in headlines about the passing of the British baton — he defeated Tim Henman in the first round — while Berdych went on to overhaul a star-studded field and lift the Paris Masters.
