Summer League

Previous results

Players will be grouped in 4 divisions based on level of play / Leinster League division, and play against everyone from the division, so everyone should get a lot of close matches in their group  - all levels are welcome, including beginners & casual players. 

When 

Five Wednesdays in May/June 2018:
  • 30/05 - division matches
  • 06/06 - division matches
  • 13/06 - division matches
  • 20/06 - division matches
  • 27/06 - finals for top 8 players from each division

There is no obligation to play all nights - you can skip some, and just play as many matches as you want on other nights, but to qualify into the top 8 and play in the finals, you need enough matches played, as well as points won.
