October 16 has been locked in as the start date at the Albury Grasscourts.

However, if Victorian Covid restrictions don't permit players south of the border to participate, a temporary Preliminary Pennant League will commence.

The format for the league will be a pool of four to five, which can include mixed players.

All levels can enter individually, with the league to run week to week until regular Summer pennant can resume with all NSW and Victorian players.
