There was a good roll up of ladies on Thursday who all enjoyed the catch up over tennis and a cuppa.

Last Sunday was a very busy day indeed, with not only the social tennis but also court hires to the public – the phone rang hot from 10am right through until 6pm.

All courts were filled to the brim, with the occasional queuing to secure a court.

The committee was absolutely chuffed to see the complex so full and it proves that the game of tennis is still very popular for everyone.

The second round of the Hump Day Night Comp was contested on Wednesday night.

Players enjoyed the tennis and there were many comments about the perfect, balmy night.

It’s great to be out under the stars enjoying what we love.

The ladies winner was Julia Learson on 12 games/two sets and  Nick Powell won the men’s with 18/two.

There will be a committee meeting in the Clubhouse this Sunday at noon, with a full agenda.

Committee members who cannot attend  please notify the secretary or another committee member.

The mixed social starts after the meeting at 1.30pm, with Brett Campbell on duty.

The lucky winner of the ‘free hit’ voucher last week was Mary Baxter.
