The Summer Interclub season runs from September to April (with a Christmas break mid‑December to mid‑January), and the Winter Interclub season from May to August.

Interclub is a competition run by Tennis Northern between affiliated clubs on the North Shore. It caters for all skill levels and offers three formats:

• Mixed Doubles
• Men’s & Ladies’ Doubles
• Men’s & Ladies’ Singles

👉 Please note: To play Interclub you’ll need to be a current club member and have paid the interclub fee.

Dairy Flat Tennis Club can help facilitate participation in all formats, and we welcome new players at any time — even if the season has already started, we’ll help find a team for you!
