Happy tennis year

What a fun year we had at our club in 2021. Lots of new activities and a great vibe happening at our club. Our ‘Love Tennis’ event was a success with lots of kids and adults coming down to have a hit, with Mason being our youngest at 20 months. It looks like he has his grip sussed already.

Thank you to the teachers at Ōmokoroa Point School who came down to entertain us with a doubles match. Welcome to our new members who signed up on the day. We look forward to seeing you on court!

We held our Christmas function on the 11th December with a great turnout, and many in their Christmas garb. With such good numbers, we played a quick-fire fun tennis tournament with the winners moving up the courts and splitting, and the losers staying put and splitting up. If you wanted a rest, you had to win all your games. So everyone played hard as the thermometer was on red hot for the afternoon.

We had a great feast afterwards as we all relaxed and presented the awards for the Club Champs held earlier in the year. Simone Jenkins and her son Jonty cleaned up on many of the trophies and Simone Jenkins and

Craig Joubert were the winners of the ladies and men’s singles in 2021. We hope to have a great battle in 2022 so put your name down for Club Champs.

We’ve added two more cardio tennis sessions so get your name down to work off the holiday calories or join the ladies on Fridays for singles tennis. Jeff Warren is running mixed doubles every four weeks so contact Jeff on 021 109 9668 if you’d like to play.
