Junior/Parent Tournament
On Sunday 26th November we hosted our Junior/Parent tournament and had a great turnout and lots of fun.
|
The day started out overcast and windy but the sun came out for a lovely afternoon. Teams had a handicap if necessary which made all the games competitive. Jeff and Levi Crichton took out 1st place with Geoff and Alex Heaton coming in as close runners-up.
|
Our littlest and newest players took part in a round robin with our red hot shots balls played in a half court. The matches were played the first to four games. They all had a great positive attitude which was awesome to see.
|
Huge thanks to all our helpers, Jan for running the tournament, Amy C and Sandra L for helping run the day, Ed S for cooking some awesome sausages and to all the seniors who filled in as our seniors for parents that were injured or non-tennis players!!

If anybody has some spare time to kill over the holidays and would like to volunteer some time and give back to the club, there is a list of small jobs stuck to the inside of the window (it will also be posted to Facebook).

Important Club Reminders & Information
If you are leaving the club and there is no-one around please close the downstairs sliding door.
|
If you are leaving the courts and there is no-one else playing, please make sure the court gates are closed.
|
NEW: If you have started a bar tab please pay it at the end of the day or evening. This saves Jeremy extra hours of his time creating and sending out invoices. There will now be a small processing fee of $3 charge added to all bar tabs that need to be invoiced out to cover additional processing charges and time.
|
We are looking for some new committee members to join our team. If you have a set of skills you think might be useful or just want to get involved, please get in touch.
