Saturday’s smash hit

Contributed by Ben Ladson

ANOTHER beautiful Saturday afternoon during the last week of June. 28 players took to the court, five of whom being first timers to our Shepparton & District Tennis Association (SDTA) Round Robin format.

Court 1 saw Mike taking out all three sets in a strong performance. The standout on Court 2 was Brett, whilst on Court 3, Mike’s son Oscar was too strong for his opposition.

Court 4 had, and I quote, “some of the longest games ever”, with Hamish coming out undefeated. Sam took the chocolates on Court 5, whilst on Court 7, Tools continues his rise through the ranks, which is impressive considering he hasn’t played competitive tennis before. And finally, on Court 8, Maddie had her maiden victory.

If you’d like to have a hit of tennis on Saturdays at 1.15pm, it’s just $2 with new balls at 4 Packham Street, Shepparton. Everyone is welcome.
