They’re on their way to Wimbledon!

There were some highly competitive matches at the Play Your Way to Wimbledon tournament as members set their sights on reaching the national finals played on grass at Wimbledon. Congratulations to Elena and Lucy who won 7-5 against Anne and Isabel, and Henrik and James who won 6-2, 7-5 against Aadil and Maceij. They go through to  the county play offs and  hopefully on to Wimbledon!

 

Artists at work!

Our first ‘Paint and Sip’ evening was a great success as members swapped tennis racquets for paintbrushes and produced some brilliant artwork. Many thanks to Alice for organising and Florence and Katy for sharing tips and advice. Just shows we’re a welcoming tennis club and much, much more!

Table Tennis teams poised for success in 2025!

Half way through the Table Tennis season, our three teams in the South and West Middlesex League have put in some strong performances.
In Division 1, the A team is second to old rivals, Oaks,  thanks to the eight members who have played for the team, with strong performances from new regulars Ryan and Louie alongside seasoned campaigners Geoff and Doug. Triangle B is top of  Division 2 after Oliver and Shashi played a great match to win against Oaks D.  Our C team has also put in some good performances under talismanic captain, Rocco, and could challenge for second place.
In the much bigger Wembley and Harrow League, our A team has achieved an impressive third place in the ultra competitive second division with Rafal and Marek both on a 70% win record. The B team has high hopes of moving up the table in Division 4 after Christmas!
