FUNDRAISING TENNIS DAY’S A REAL ‘SMASH’!
 

Collingham’s Tennis Summer season ended with a real crowd pleaser when over 120 enthusiasts watched a tennis exhibition doubles set involving ex-Davis Cup Team members Danny Sapsford and Luke Milligan partnering a courageous Club Head Coach Chris McGill and club Men’s Number 1 Michael Copleston (pictured).

The day, which was supported by the charity ‘Bright Ideas for Tennis’, included coaching for all ages and abilities as well as stalls and a BBQ.

Danny and Luke were so impressed with the club’s friendly ethos and arrangements that they told Shona Hatton, main organiser of the day, that they were going to award the club one of their 24-hour marathon events in 2017, one of only 12 offered to clubs in the country each year.

We raised a whopping £1,700 which will go towards the building of a much needed new clubhouse.
