Saxmundham Tennis Club hosted a Tennis Grand Prix (TGP) under 14s event on Sunday 9th June with juniors coming from Stowmarket, Newmarket, Lowestoft and one of our own in Linus Aldridge.
There was a fantastic afternoon's play, which saw plenty of close battles, with several going the full distance to a tie-break (which was an absolute nightmare logistically...) but an absolute pleasure to watch!
Each junior played three singles and one doubles, and therefore fully deserved to scoff down a cake, with plenty on offer as usual thanks to the amazing refreshment team of Fiona, Jill and Fran whom now have quite the formidable reputation on the tournament circuit for an amazing selection of goodies (even despite a boules mix up...).
Sixteen juniors entered in total, with two getting the full points on offer by getting 16/16 games: top work from Ben and Ashden.
Linus ended up winning two of the four matches and played brilliantly throughout the afternoon, flying the flag high for Saxmundham.
The next Tennis Grand Prix event at Saxmundham will be on 6th October, where we welcome an under 12s event.
