Bethersden Tennis has a year to remember
Written by Tom Carlton
Friday, 18 December 2009 19:55
Bethersden Tennis Club had it's annual end of year presentation evening, which this year highlighted one of it's most successful ever years.
The Club has around 80 adult members and over 150 juniors playing regularly at their courts in Bethersden and also at sessions they hold at the six courts at Courtside Ashford, and Homewood School.
In the past 12 months the junior section has won titles in the Ashford and District League at U14 (girls) U16 (boys) and U18 (boys). In the East Kent Section of the National Junior Club League the juniors also won at U14 and U16 girls level.
It wasn't all about the youngsters though with the Club winning their division in the Kent Winter Mixed League and both the Mixed and Men's Kent League through the summer.
More locally, the Men's team won their division of the Ashford and District League and the Mixed team were runners-up. The ladies mid week team also scooped the Maidstone / Ashford mid week friendly league.
Many of the juniors have also represented the senior teams in the various leagues and the future looks good for the club.
In the clubs internal events their were also trophies to be presented.
David Wallis and Sara Nudd won the Opening Tournament back at the start of the year. Mother and son Jane and Laurence Harvey won the Clubs Open Mixed Tournament which attracted over 40 pairs.
There were wins for Steve Parker and Jo Legg in the men's and ladies singles events, whilst Terry Grey and Tim Winch shared the most improved player award.
Top juniors were Jack Ibbetson, Steph Wilton, Eliza Wallis with Rudi Beerensson winning the most improved award.
Looking forward to seeing you all on court in 2010
