COMPETITIONS
Where competition play is concerned, it is important that juniors feel comfortable amongst the group of players whom they compete against. To ensure juniors get the most enjoyment out of competition play, they are grouped into competitions which best fits their age and standard of play. Junior players seeking competition play are advised to contact either Debbie Jepson from MAD Tennis or Scott Riley from River Road Tennis Centre. Prospective junior members should know that competition play at club level can become to be taken more seriously by players. The club recognises that there may be stronger junior players wishing to join the club as full members. This is highly encouraged where the committee feels such individuals would receive sufficient enjoyment.
