Our Stop on the Tour
Kiss My Ace
2024 will mark the 14th Manchester GLTA International Tournament, hosted by Northern Aces. The tournament was renamed 'Kiss My Ace' in 2018, and is one of two GLTA tournaments held in the United Kingdom.
Friday 19th - Sunday 21st September 2024
Registration opens 16th March 2024
Once again, Kiss My Ace will be held at The Northern, Didsbury, affectionately known as The Wimbledon of the North.
In 2019 Kiss My Ace became the first tournament on the European Tour to offer grass court play, and not just any grass courts - these courts have been rated second only to Wimbledon.

The Northern Lawn Tennis Club
Located in five acres of grounds in a tranquil setting in the heart of Didsbury, The Northern is an award-winning club and a wonderful place to play tennis. This club has a 135 year history, hosting national and international events such as the Aegon Manchester Tournament.
Many great players have played here including Jimmy Connors, Billy Jean King, John McEnroe, Martina Navratilova, Sue Barker, Goran Ivanisovic, and Martina Hingis.
Pete Sampras won his first ever grass court tournament at The Northern, and more recent stars of the circuit such as Anna Ivanovic have used the club as a training base.
