We love to look back and reflect over our tennis achievements, and September was full of them! We had multiple successful tournaments and events, and our Ladies Team have smashed it in Bournemouth. Read on to find out more!
Generation Cup kicked off our start to September. All teams were made up of different ages and abilities and were captained by our coaches. Teams were made up of juniors, social players and team players. It was a great afternoon of team tennis, challenges, games and fun followed by a social event and delicious BBQ. We had 100 members participating and it made it a fantastic day. Our Blue Team were our runners-up this year, but a massive congratulations goes to our Purple Team who were the Generation Cup 2024 winners!
Our Club Championships was our next big tournament at the club, with the tournament beginning in April and finals in mid-September! There were 14 categories to be won, over tennis and padel. We had a fantastic finals day where we watched members battle it out on court after four months of matches. Thank you to everyone that entered our Club Champs, you all smashed it, and a massive congratulations to all our winners.
Our Memorial Tournament rounded off our September events. Our Memorial Tournament is an afternoon of tennis to show respect to members who have recently passed away, followed by a mixed doubles competition. This was a lovely event played on a sunny afternoon, with lots of cake and snacks. Well done to all of our players that came down and enjoyed the sunshine with us. A massive congratulations goes to our champions of the day who took the Memorial Trophy!
Our Ladies Team have been competing in Bournemouth in the National Team Tennis Finals! This event started in April in the Regional League and the top eight teams battled it out in September. The girls lost to the top seeds and event winners but squeezed in a win over Roehampton Club to be placed 5th/6th nationally! This is a fantastic achievement, a great experience and a really fun weekend. Congratulations ladies!
