Players will be arriving from West Sussex, Surrey, Kent and London to challenge the strong local contingent, which dominated the 2015 tournament.

Rob Morphett (Spartan) won the singles, Charles Wright (Spartan) and Steve Jeapes (White Rock) clinched the pairs, and Wright, Jeapes and Mike Evans (Spartan) triumphed in the triples 12 months ago.
