Club Matches
The Ladies played their first fixture of the summer on the 16th June. This was away to Sundridge and our Ladies put up a good show, but went down 2 sets to 6 on the day. Well played to Rose, Kuniko, Jan and Jean - it was a very hot day and we are not so familiar with the dusty clay at Sundridge Park!
Jubilee American tournament and lunch
The second Club event of the year was held on Thursday 2nd June, with Rosie Anderson and Brian Keegan emerging as the winners of a fun and close fought American tournament. See the flyer attached below for more details.
