If you're rostered to play on court 1, your team is on key duty. View the home court roster here. View the key duty tasks here.
Unless agreed otherwise before play commences by the two WBTC team captains, the following rule should be followed when sharing a court:
The two opposing teams that are ready first to commence two matches with all eight players present and on court will use the shared court for their first four matches/sets. Once their first four matches/sets are complete, they are to use a single court for the remainder of the night releasing the shared court to the other two teams.
The current season is SPRING 2026.
SPRING dates are start of August through to mid-November excluding finals. There is then a break over the busier festive months.
AUTUMN dates are start of February through to mid-May excluding finals. There is then a break over the colder winter months.
Competition play during each season is held on Tuesday evenings starting at 7pm until the completion of all sets.
NSNTA competition is doubles only. Each player plays three sets of doubles, one set with each of their team members.
The NSNTA competition is played at approved association clubs. A list of clubs is here. Individual team draws will determine your opposing clubs.

Competition help & FAQs
Helpful tips and frequently asked questions that are relevant to playing competition at WBTC.
Cancellation of matches is determined by the WBTC club assigned competition co-ordinators. Whether to play or not is determined by weather forecasts and court conditions. The decision can be made as late as the start time on the night/day of play. Cancellation is rarely made before 6.30pm.
Captains are not to contact opposition captains directly to declare a washout.
If a washout is not declared by the coordinator then you have to turn up, all 4 players from each team (total 8), and mutually agree to a washout with the other team at the host venue.
The two captains can agree to a washout before all 8 players have arrived. However, either captain can delay agreeing to a washout until all 8 players are present if they choose to. It would not be until 8.00 pm that the match becomes a forfeit, if one team does not have 4 players [By-law 26(b)(v)].
The home team then records the washout on the NSNTA website.
It is important to assume you're playing until you hear otherwise.
For more information please refer to the NSNTA website.
