Although we only had a few visitors for our Open Day, the sun shined for the Handicap Finals and there was a lovely atmosphere around the club with lots of members down and some great matches to watch.
Congratulations to all the finalists and particularly the winners – Michael Whiting-WInkless, Lynn Hayes, Elliot Tiffin & Michael Whiting Winkless (again!), Margaret Brichmore & Tiki Harbourne, Catherine & Michael Lee-Saunders. The day ended with a delicious chilli supper. Roll on our Open Finals Day on Saturday 18th July!!
Next Sunday is set to be a busy one in Sandford Road! Following on from last years successful event we have coupled Handicap Finals day with our Summer Open Day.
Open day runs from 10-4pm with our Handicap singles finalists commencing battle from about 1pm. There will a chilli supper following the finals at around 6.30 ish. The list is up in the club house so hurry to put your name down – this will be limited to 25 people on a first come first served basis!
Open days are one of the ways we attract new members: if you’re a member you’re an advert for what’s good about BLTSC so why not come down and spread the word; if you know someone who’s thinking about joining a club, bring them along with their cheque book: there will be membership offers available on the day!
Also, in conjunction with our friends at Jolly Good Sports (Petts Wood), we have invited Prince (racket manufacturers not diminutive Pop Star) along to offer everyone the opportunity to try out their range of rackets- David Revell will be on site from about 12ish and will be providing guidance and advice about racket technology and what could improve your game.
Demo’s are open to everyone- members and non- members alike so make sure you pack your tennis kit as well as your lotion- see you next Sunday
The draws have been made for the 2009 Open tournaments and will be displayed today, June 2nd, in the clubhouse.
With over forty men competing in the singles we plan to run a plate event provided matches are played on schedule. So Gentlemen- get playing!
We’re looking for more Ladies Vets to make the draw viable, so talk to Justine or the Office if you’re interested.
Finals day traditionally falls on the third Saturday in July, this year that means Saturday July 18th. It’s BLTC’s flagship day with Open and Vets finals: prize giving for Open, Handicap and Junior events along with celebratory supper. Tickets for the evening will go on sale late June or early July- make a date in your diary!
Good luck!
