Two tournaments you may be interested in

Shotley & Benfieldside TC are holding their second 'Seniors at Shotley' Tournament over the weekend of 5th - 6th August and are inviting players across the North East to enter and support the competition. Here is a link to the entry page. Each competition will run over just half a day so no massive time commitment is required and there are competitions for Over 35's, Over 50's and Over 65's in Ladies and Men's Doubles. It's officially a Grade 5 Tournament, and the closing date for entries is Sunday, 30th July at 10.00am. Nice trophies for the winners and a light buffet to keep the energy levels up - and a bar!

All part of the County's efforts to stimulate more competition across the age ranges.

Many thanks - any questions, please let us know.

Best wishes
