Inaugural Floodlight League

Inaugural Floodlight League 2024/25

 

Wow! What a fantastic success this social competition has been for the Club, supporting 36 people to keep in touch with their tennis over the whole winter. 

They braved snow, rain, wind and on a couple of occasions; teeth chattering temperatures. These players are true die-hard tennis legends and deserve massive praise for their enthusiasm and commitment to this organsied winter play.

Not forgetting that this wouldn't be possible without the new installation of the floodlights on court 2; big thanks to Gez and the tennis committee.

 

The winners of the league were the formidable Yellow team; consisiting of a core team of Jo, Simon C, Laurie and Phil. Well done to you and it was great to celebrate with a social bringing members together at the local pub!
