There are several ladies tennis leagues in Singapore that run throughout the calendar year, suitable for club-level players looking for competitive or social matches. Almost all of these tournaments require you to have a home base court. You can find a comprehensive list of tennis courts available in Singapore here.
Several teams use the indoor covered courts of Winchester Tennis Arena as their home base, since the courts offer advanced booking and guarantee play regardless of weather.
Most tennis teams have organised team training with leading tennis academies in Singapore, such as TAG International Tennis Academy, and wear team uniforms. While people often describe these events as social tennis, the matches — particularly in the WITS tournaments — are frequently very competitive.
Some teams also engage female tennis coaches, with the belief that they relate better to the competitive context of ladies leagues and apply tactics more suited to women’s doubles play.
Women’s International Tennis League (WITS)
Women’s International Tennis Singapore (WITS) is a tennis league with more than 650 women who play for competitive challenge and social camaraderie. This weekday league enables ladies from diverse national and cultural backgrounds to come together through tennis. There are Doubles and Singles leagues divided into 8 divisions, making it suitable for a wide range of skill levels.
The Autumn Season runs from September through to November; the Spring Season runs from February through to April. The Singapore Tennis Association (STA) fully sanctions WITS. To participate, you will need to form a team of between 8 and 12 players.
Each team member must play a minimum of 2 matches. In addition, the team’s players must be ranked by strength, with the strongest pair playing first. Matches are best of three sets, no-ad scoring, played either home or away.
Ladies Tennis Singapore (LTS)
Due to the competitive nature of WITS, lower-ranked players on a team often play only two matches per season. As a result, many of these players also participate in the LTS league to get more court time. LTS is a mid-week ladies’ doubles league designed to encourage participation, promote sportsmanship, and provide social tennis for all levels.
There are 3 Divisions, so the range of opponents is more varied. It is doubles only, and each team requires 6–8 players. Players play 4 sets per tie. There is a Fall season from September to December and a Spring season from January to April each year.
American Women’s Association (AWA) Doubles League
The AWA Doubles Match Play is a social tennis event with a lightly competitive element. The AWA designed this event to give women the opportunity to play relaxed social doubles with a different group of players each week, while tracking individual scores across an 8-week season.
Members sign up individually and rotate doubles partners every week. A coordinator provides the weekly schedule, dividing players into groups of four.
Each group has a designated captain who is responsible for booking the court, providing a new can of balls, and reporting scores. Every week, you will play a standard doubles match — best of three sets — with a new partner.
This activity is open to all skill levels. Depending on the number of participants, Doubles Match Play will have two divisions: Beginners/Intermediate and Advanced. You need a current AWA tennis assessment to participate.
Singapore Tennis Association (STA) Tournaments
The Singapore Tennis Association (STA) organises women’s team tournaments at least three times a year. These include an inter-club singles league (April), a doubles knock-out (June), and a doubles league (September).
Teams compete in four grades — A, B, C, and D — across both the singles and doubles leagues. For the doubles knock-out, there is only the Martha Young Cup — an A Grade event.
To participate, you will need to be a member of a participating tennis club. If you are a competent player, several clubs are open to having you join their women’s team.
Strong contenders in the inter-club ladies scene include TNT Tennis Club, Chinese Swimming Club (CSC), Singapore Island Country Club (SICC), Singapore Cricket Club (SCC), Singapore Recreation Club (SRC), and Sanwa Tennis Club. These clubs consistently field strong teams across all divisions.
Team Tennis Training for Ladies in Singapore
Many women’s tennis teams in Singapore undertake organised team training with top academies such as TAG International Tennis Academy at Winchester Tennis Arena. This training typically focuses on two areas. First, developing each player as an individual doubles player so she can pair effectively with any teammate. Second, building fixed-pair chemistry through doubles strategy, tactics, communication, and teamwork.
Female Tennis Coaches in Singapore
Some ladies tennis teams in Singapore prefer to work with female coaches. However, very good female coaches are relatively rare. Among the more well-known female tennis coaches in Singapore are Coach Lela Zainal, Coach Jaime Wong, and Coach Cheryl Oh. Most leading tennis academies, including TAG International Tennis Academy, primarily have male coaches on their roster.
