Sportivate

Coach Glyn Smith and some of the participants at our Sportivate sessions. This course was part of a Sport England scheme to encourage 14-25 year olds to participate in regular sport.

We're submitting a bid to run a similar programme in the spring, so if you know of anyone who might be interested, or might be able to publicise it at your school or college watch this space.

 

Finals Day
 A huge crowd crammed the terrace to watch some gripping and skilful tennis. The under 12 title went to Esther Jones, who beat Bradley Smith in straight sets. Sean Yates won the under 16s beating Bradley as well. Tom Fenoughty retained the Mens singles, beating Glyn Smith in a tense 3 set match. Jayne Jenkinson regained the Ladies singles from last year’s winner Diane Watson in 2 hard fought sets. Tom triumphed again in the Mens doubles, partnering Cristi Onisa to a close 3 set win over Harvey Sutton and Phil Whelan. In the Ladies doubles Ruth Walker and Lynne Kirkham beat Danielle Gaynor and Georgina Taylor, and in the Mixed, Judith Sharpe and Glyn Smith beat Esther Jones and Gavin Rocket in another close 3 setter.

Current News 10/11/12

We've got it!  LTA Councillor Bob Lamb presented us with a plaque and certificate at our Dinner Dance last Saturday. Picture soon.

Just a reminder that on  Sunday 4th February we'll be having an American tournament, much like the ones we've run on Monday nights. No need to book, just turn up about 9.45 for a 10 o' clock start and we'll  arrange a draw with whoever comes.  We've managed an enjoyable morning's tennis  undeterred by the weather every time we've tried so far, so don't be put off by the weather - wrap up and give it a try.

Autumn / Winter Tennis
As last year we’ve entered a team in the Sheffield and District Winter League (Saturday afternoons and one in the Grove TC floodlit league (Mon, Wed, Thu evenings). Monday night social tennis will continue for as long as the limited daylight allows, but as this won’t be for much longer, from next week we’ll be playing on Sunday Mornings from 10a.m. These will include the popular monthly American tournaments, the first on Sunday 9th October and thereafter on the first Sunday of each month.

We’re also planning to organise some men’s singles tournaments on the Saturdays our winter league team is playing away. Details will follow shortly, but if you’re interested let Andrew Thompson know; andrew@aries25.demon.co.uk 07976256784
