=============================
Business House was first introduced at Clevedon in 1983.
Business House is played on Monday nights and Thursday nights, starting at 6.45 pm.
Teams are made up of 2 men and 2 women. There are 4 matches each evening: Ladies Doubles, Mens Doubles and 2 Mixed Doubles games.
Play runs for half an hour with sudden-death deuces. During each match, winners of each game are handicapped in the following game by giving the opposition one point advantage, ie if team is 1 game down, they start the next game at 15-love. If team is 2 games down, they start the next game at 30-love.
This is a great way to improve your tennis in a fun and relaxed environment and to meet other Members of the Club.
Playing Schedules are sent out by email and put up in Club Rooms (examples below)
