Cambs County Seniors Tennis 2020 Interim Report

17/9/2020

0 Comments

 
During this very crazy world of Covid19 and lockdown we are now experiencing, sadly all County and National Tennis events were cancelled from mid March. However, I am still very pleased to be able to report some brilliant achievements from many of our county players. 


Jan2020 Tipton Indoor Championships
45s MS semis - Andrew Moraghan 
45s MD Winner Pieter Van Houten, R/U David Mills & Nick Boys
50s WS & WD Winner - Teresa Catlin
55s MD R/U, Alan Jordan/Scott Martin 
60s WS Winner Judy Horn 
60s WD semis, Sue Mitchell /Pat Forster 
2019/20 Midlands Counties Veterans Winter Leagues, held at Corby Indoor Tennis Centre, our Cambs 55s Men's team (Capt. Ashley Martin) won the Men's 55s league for the first time in 27 years! It came down to 'winner takes all' as both Cambs and Leics were level on wins against Norths, Notts, Warks, Lincs & Beds. 
Also our Cambs 40s ladies (Capt. Christine Sprowell) having won the last 3 years, sadly were R/U this year.  They were in the same position having drawn on sets with Lincs up to the last match. So it came also came down to 'winner takes all' with Lincs winning. 
Scottish Indoor Championships   3-8 Feb 55WD Jenny Chin R/U
