It hardly seems right that the summer is over already. What does seem right is the send-off we gave her…

Another gloriously sunny day for our Club Champs Finals Day on Sunday 7 September.

Thank you to all who helped organise - everything from format to trophies to volunteers, with particular mention to Ben, Margaret and Simone.

Thanks to all who donated raffle prizes (how many did we have?), cakes, and other provisions.

Thanks to all who helped on the day - setting up, BBQ Baron Seymour, stalls, raffle, photographer extraordinaire Steve.

Thank you to Deputy Town Mayor Councillor Darren Dordoy

And thanks to those who stayed to clean up at the end - finally we allowed some drops of rain.

Congratulations to all who won prizes in the raffle. Congratulations to Jane, Catherine and Lily for their award-winning planter designs.

Our most heartfelt congratulations go to all our finals players, and our immense thanks for creating a day of fantastic tennis. As spectators, we were enthralled by all your performances.
