Carlyon Bay Covered Court Championships

The Carlyon Bay Covered Court Championships was a combined men's and women's indoor wood court tennis tournament founded in 1936. The tournament was held at the Riviera Club, St. Austell, Cornwall, England until 1967.

History In the early 1930s the Cornish Riviera Club was constructed that included two large indoor tennis courts. In 1936 Carlyon Bay Covered Court Championships were established. In the late 1960s the tournament was ended due to the venue becoming a live music venue and was renamed as the New Cornish Riviera Lido. The venue later became known as the Cornwall Coliseum.
