For clubs and organizers

Host a tournament

Put your club's tournament on the national calendar. Check the sanction fee and the notice period for your level, then send the application; the federation reviews it and confirms ranking points and insurance.

How it works

  1. Pick a level

    The level sets the sanction fee, the notice period, the minimum number of courts and the referee you need.

  2. Send the application

    Dates, venue, courts, events, expected entries and the chief referee. The form checks the rules as you type.

  3. Federation review

    Within 10 working days. Approval applies the level's ranking multiplier, confirms insurance and opens your calendar entry.

Sanction fees and rules

Published fees per tournament level. The fee is invoiced only after approval.
