### 2/5 — Good and bad

*2026-06-23, version 7.9.2*

Good for contacting opponents and arranging matches. Very bad, though, that wins correctly entered on the app appear as losses on LTA My Game.

### 2/5 — ?Android only

*2026-06-16, version 7.9.2*

The app seems to be half finished for me, yet I’ve seen it used on Android and it appears to be fully functioning. Strange

### 2/5 — Hides real number of players?

*2026-01-23*

It’s good for setting up a match, but this “league” i was joining was meant to be 13 members strong. It turned out to be 4. Just lies to people in order to get more people to pay into their league system. Quite sad really. Grateful they gave 50% of the league entry fee for the limited amount of players. Only reason I’ve offered 2 stars.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-05-20*

The designer/s of this app clearly have no sense of usability. It gets worse and worse with each iteration. So much so that I am considering giving up on joining a league again if the only way to arrange games is through this hopeless app. Trying to figure out how to broadcast your availability to play to those in your league still eludes me. This was all so much simpler before they intriduced this dross. We could just email or WhatsApp opponents without all this useless eye candy nonsense. Why we need an app escapes me.

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2025-05-12, version 7.1.0*

Doesn’t let me sign in or make an account

### 1/5 — Rubbish

*2025-05-08*

This app pretty much sums of the LTA glitchy often doesn’t open or work properly, but the LTA website is even worse page or page access very difficult to find anything just a complete This app it’s pretty much the same very poor.

### 2/5 — Ewan98

*2025-05-05, version 7.1.0*

I don’t think you understand what you’re talking about 😥

### 1/5 — Unusable

*2025-05-03, version 7.1.0*

Tried to activate my world tennis number countless times to no avail. Contacted support twice, no response. Do you want my money or what? I can’t pay to join a league because I can’t activate my WTN! Oh well

### 1/5 — Locked out

*2025-04-08, version 1.0.8*

Keeps asking me to create a WTN number and sends back to the log in screen

### 3/5 — Ruined by Barclays

*2025-03-31*

This has really gone downhill since being “sponsored” by Barclays. The leagues became more expensive; all contact/support was removed; some of the nicer functionality (eg match reports) was removed; and even the league results are no longer calculated correctly. The app itself is still quite slick, and the Local Tennis Leagues remain a wonderful thing, although I fear the combination of LTA and Barclays are going to slowly kill them.

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2025-03-12*

Very glitchy and often stops working for no reason. It has logged me out and I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling twice, restarting my phone, updating operating system and none of these have worked.

### 1/5 — Terrible App, use Spin instead

*2024-12-20, version 1.0.8*

I’ve tried hard to use and enjoy this app. But it’s just not a great experience. Use Spin instead, I’ve met more people and played more games through Spin

### 1/5 — Poor app

*2024-12-02*

To navigate the app itself is poor , impossible to contact support team . The website was so much better.  Also automated game schedule such a stupid idea.  If you late to join a league for a day it’s impossible to find who to contact in order to register yourself . Before it was not a problem. 
Racket pal app is getting more popular then this with their new adjustments .

### 1/5 — Useless

*2026-06-19, version 7.9.2*

What’s the point of suggesting matches?? Based on what?? Just to create confusion and mess up calendar. With the latest update chats with players got duplicated. Bad

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-05-17, version 7.9.0*

Sends me on a doom loop when trying to register in a local league

### 1/5 — Worst Update

*2026-05-07, version 7.9.0*

I’ve just completed the latest update yesterday and nothing works now. I have an iPhone 16 and all my other apps I’ve updated work just fine. Please look into fix this asap, thanks.

### 1/5 — Nice idea bad execution

*2026-01-31*

The app is garbage. The chat truncates message history and it does weird things like proposing dates before you’ve agreed them which ends up being v confusing. Can’t correct scores properly once entered. UI clunky and needs work. 
Also, not at all clear why I’m paying £20 for a league when there is nothing for them to provide except the app. Won’t use again and wish players in my local area used something different.

### 1/5 — Completely Broken

*2025-09-21*

Every time I open the app, it throws several errors, including “can’t load data from the server”. The search functionality is completely broken, and the sign-up functionality is unusable. To top it off, there’s no option to use a web browser.

**Developer response:** We're sorry you're experiencing an issue with the search functionality. We've recently updated our app and these updates have resolved the issue please update your app and try again. If the problem does appear again our customer support team is here to help you, please get in touch with them via our support centre and they can assist your from there.

### 1/5 — Broken app

*2025-09-08*

Easily the worst functioning app I have on my phone. Server is consistently down so you can’t update messages, results, or standings for days on end, sometimes even weeks. Almost impossible to coordinate match play when you can’t access your messages or view anyone’s profile.

### 1/5 — The app doesn’t work

*2025-09-01, version 7.4.0*

You charge a fortune for leagues and your stupid app won’t let me add scores or send messages. I keep getting oops you have landed out of bounds. Chargeback incoming

### 1/5 — Can’t respond

*2025-09-01, version 7.4.0*

I have a message for a match tonight that I can’t open or respond to. I will therefore have to forfeit etc. not fit for purpose

### 1/5 — Possibly the worst app ever

*2025-08-04, version 7.3.1*

Would be great to have this one completely overhauled.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2025-07-27, version 7.3.1*

All it does it ask me to log in to say details are not available.  Downloaded yesterday, deleted today.

### 5/5 — Best App

*2026-06-30, version 7.9.2*

Great App! Great innitiave. Thank you for who’s organising the leagues

### 5/5 — Good for playing and socialising

*2025-08-02, version 7.3.1*

I like this app. Good for meeting people and playing tennis. Good for intermediate. I’ll keep using it

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-07-06*

Helped me with finding people locally!

### 5/5 — Wonderful app

*2025-02-07, version 1.0.8*

The app is well designed and very easy to use! The concept of local tennis leagues is also brilliant, it allowed me to get into a new sport and meet new people. Since starting local tennis leagues I have become a big tennis fan and I enjoy playing every week

### 5/5 — LTL

*2024-05-15*

Easy to use, great idea!

### 5/5 — Great tool - playing matches is easy now!

*2024-02-29*

So good to be able to find a league, similar players, and organise matches from my phone. Game changer!

### 4/5 — App review

*2026-06-08, version 7.9.2*

Like the app but no support with admin group chat. The LTA needs to at least automate responses for FAQ. Radio silence!

### 4/5 — Please fix

*2024-04-21*

When sending messages if you click the three dot message options which allows to pin or mute, you can’t come off that option without exiting the app. The X Button doesn’t work!!!

### 3/5 — Good to have an App

*2026-05-15*

Good to have an app. Shame it only delivers 50% of what it could with the LTA grossly and continually letting the tennis community down. It continues to rob players of ability to communicate with support for queries and issues - no contact number, no email and convoluted Support system. The player skill level ranking system also unnecessarily unfair if one skips a league period. Finally, taking over courts, laying cheap surfaces that decay within 2 years whilst increasing fees and making booking increasingly difficult.

### 3/5 — Average at best

*2025-09-01*

The app just about works, after a lot of refreshing I was able to sign up but can see why a lot people would give up. The app itself works although is a bit buggy
