The main colour of sports shirt, and shorts or skirt, or one-part outfit, shall be clearly different from that of the ball (white) in use. Other garments, such as a part or all of a track suit, shall not be worn during play except with permission of the referee.

4.   Veterans shall be 40 years of age or over, and Senior Veterans 50 years of age or over, on 1st January during the current administrative year. Any other event is open to any age. Veteran Doubles and Senior Veteran Singles are open to both Men and Ladies.
