Condolences to the Rundle Family for their recent loss, our thoughts are with you.
We have installed new shade sails in the walkway behind courts 7 & 8 using money raised from last years raffle and also from the Preston St IGA promotion "Locals Supporting Locals". They look fantastic and will provide lots of extra shade and sun protection for spectators and players.
A big thank you to the Thomas Family for donating a brand new storage cupboard for our tennis bags.
