Saturday 10th of May was our Summer Turbo Competition<\/strong>. Rain had been forecast but \u00a0perhaps lured by promises of Strawberries and Pimms, 21 members turned up to battle it out for the prestige but definitely not for the prizes!<\/p>\n As we stepped our for the first round, the heavens opened, and it was a true English baptism for our newer members who found out that nothing stops us playing our tennis! Allen Clark even removed his glasses for a while as he couldn’t see whether they were on or off; he still managed to win that game prompting calls that perhaps he should always play with his glasses removed!<\/p>\n By the second round, the sun was out and I heard complaints from someone in a very bright tee-shirt, that sunglasses were now required! Yes truly, British Summer had arrived. For future reference you need waterproof, sunglasses, insect repellant and Arnica at all times Andy.<\/p>\n We were ably supported by members young and old. Emma Woodley<\/strong> enjoyed her first adult tournament and Miles Liversidge<\/strong> was an excellent time-keeper. Unfortunately for his mother he now feels he can shout ‘Stop!’ and ‘Start!’ through a loudhailer whenever he likes!<\/p>\n Overall Trish<\/strong> and Caroline<\/strong> were joint ladies winners with Wendy<\/strong> and An<\/strong> joint runners-up. Allen<\/strong> triumphed for the gents (see Allen, no glasses is the way forward) with a massive 38 points;\u00a0Frank<\/strong> and Andy <\/strong>came\u00a0in second and third.<\/p>\n A huge thank you to all who came, played, supported and cleared-up. A great start to our summer season. Please come and support our teams playing this coming week. Mens II on the 13th and Ladies III on Friday 16th both at home.<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Saturday 10th of May was our Summer Turbo Competition.
