COACHING PLAYERS TOURNAMENT
On 1st March, a coaching players tournament was held at Chiswick Tennis Club organised by Jo Martin. The winner of the competition was Sean Saga, closely followed by Armann Singh and right behind was Leonie Orhan.  
 

Well done to all of those who took part. The date of the next tournament is TCB so look out for updates for this fun and popular event. 

MEN’S WINTER LEAGUE
The Chiswick Tennis Clubs Men’s team played away matches at Thistleworth Tennis Club on 11th  February and at Kenton (1st team) on 16th March. It was a hard fought battle for both matches but unfortunately the other teams powered through to victory. Thistleworth won 8-0 whilst it was a tight match with Kenton who won 5-3 in the end. For this season the CTC Men’s team finished 3rd out of 6 teams in the league meaning they will stay in division 4 for next winter.

Get Ready for Spring Drop in Sessions – Monday 8pm – 9pm 
Our Get Ready for Spring classes are ideal for players who have experience in tennis and are able to maintain a rally when the incoming ball has slow/ medium pace without spin and placed close to the player.
Players in this class have some experience at volleys and serving but are not yet confident with those shots in a point play situation.
While players in this class are able to maintain rallies, they are not yet able to maintain rallies when the incoming ball has speed, spin or requires more movement. Players are also not yet confident at directing the ball or hitting with spin.
