SUMMER CHAMPS IS GO
That's right. We've had a fantastic weekend. Tomorrow is meant to be an incredible 18C- and so, yes! We're now officially accepting entries for the 2019 Tennis Summer Championships! Please look at the attachment, as that has all the rules and regulations. Also, it seems like this edition may well have one or two quirky features. Good luck everyone!!!
WINTER MIXED DRAW
A very exciting Winter Mixed Draw happened yesterday via The Chronicle. For those not in the WhatsApp chat group, the attachment should give you a taster of the matches that will be played over the next fortnight or so. The weather's incredible, so you've every reason to come on down and lend vocal support to the tournament!
GRAFTON KEEPS IT REAL
Last weekend a few Graftonites were lucky enough to walk in the footsteps of Henry VIII & co, by picking some Real Tennis wooden rackets and giving the Hampton Court crowd a show fit for a monarch! Don't believe us? Check out the photos on Facebook.
Many thanks to our very own Simon Barker for all the effort and organisation put into making it such an awesome evening.
SOCIAL TENNIS WITH THE COACHES (Wed 13 Mar, 20 Mar)
Coaches Gary and Steve will be going down to Wednesday social on 13th March and 20th March. The evening will be a great chance for the social group to get some tips on how to improve their doubles, and possibly even take on the coaches...?
SQUASH 57 / RACKETBALL
The inaugural Social Session provided a good and enjoyable workout for a few of us. Going forwards courts will be available for the next few Wednesdays (1945), so do give it a go!
Feel free to book individual games and liaise with Lucas to access equipment. Tennis members can book via Lucas/Murray initially. If you then want to play regularly, you’ll need to extend your membership.
