We were lucky to have bright, sunny weather for the Open Tournament Finals Day and record numbers of people came to support and cheer on the finalists. The day started at 9 a.m. with junior finalists- this was the first time that Juniors battled it out on the same day as the adult finalists and was deemed to be a great idea. Parents and friends could enjoy croissants and coffee while they watched. Then followed the adult finals, all beautifully orchestrated by Karen Cressey and Colin Spratt. Many familiar and new supporters watched the rest of the matches throughout the afrternoon while enjoying the bar and BBQ facilities. The results are as follows:
