FUN, talent and determination were all clearly on display at the Junior FAMILY CUP event, hosted by Cheam FIelds Tennis on Saturday 18th June.
The LTA's FAMILY CUP is an informal family doubles competition. There was a great turnout with 46 players in total taking part - 9 pairs in the RED event, 8 pairs in the ORANGE event and 6 pairs in the GREEN. Congratulations to the eventual winners:
RED - Isabella and James; ORANGE - Milo and Justin; ORANGE PLATE - Taylor and Clinton; Green - Felix and Stu.
The Tennis Section's award-winning Head Coach, Mark Love of MDL Coaching, ran the event on the day. He says: "The children and parents played brilliantly and there was some fantastic tennis played. Importantly everyone had fun.
"Afterwards we also held a doubles event for our older age group Juniors, giving them a chance to mix in with adult team players. Twenty players took part so thank you to the adults who supported and made it so enjoyable for the children."
Thanks to Everyone Involved
