Handicaps

Thanks to the work of John Trapp, there is now a National computerised system in place which will soon incorporate handicaps in the United States, Australia and France. Although unpopular with some, the system is generally held to be a great improvement on the previous subjective assessment of handicaps. Handicapping is now objective and is based on a player's results rather than the opinion of a professional or handicapping committee.

If you want to see another player's handicap log on to real tennis online and when registered click "player". If you want to see your or another club's entire handicaps send an e-mail to handicaps@realtennisonline.com and type in club name in subject bar leaving the message area clear.
