AGM SEPTEMBER 21st.
What a wonderful evening, the pavilion was packed not a seat spare, Jim Biggie Chairman of the club cracked on and the business soon was got through with everyone in agreement. The reports from the Chairman, Treasurer Christine Skipper and Coaching from James Cane were very upbeat and encouraging. We have a fantastic club with so many members dedicated to continue building on the great success of the club. Junior and Adults alike strive to win all tournaments and competitions entered over the year with fantastic results. James commented on how the juniors are just flying and with the coaching and dedicated support from parents we have some excellent players who will achieve great status and can aim for the ultimate in British tennis - Wimbledon.
The presentation of the trophies got underway with many smiling faces, not just the juniors, the adults were just as proud of their achievements, Mrs Ali Bidewell who is a great supporter of the club came along and presented the cups with an encouraging word to all.
