Brilliant from the Devon 9U girls today to finish a very creditable 2nd place in the LTA County Cup. They got off to a flying start beating Cornwall 6-0, then Somerset 5-1, but lost out to Avon 6-0. It was closer than the score suggests against Avon, just coming out on the wrong side on 2 matches 4-3! All the players were fantastic, and played for Devon with great pride with all players giving everything - well done girls - Artemis, Lyla, Evelyn, Lydia, Isabelle and Team Captains Tracy and Liam.

A super day of 9U County tennis culminated with the boys also finishing 2nd behind a very strong Avon team. The boys gave everything and beat Cornwall 6-0 and Somerset 5-1 but couldn’t quite match the high level of the Avon players losing 5-1. Shout out to Dylan for the victory over their no.3 though winning 4-1. Well done to all the players they were brilliant and a super thank you to team coaches Liam and Tracy. The boys team were: Myles, Jaxon, Dylan, Kit, Max and Oscar.
