A big thank you to all those who took part in the season-opening friendly tournament last Sunday. What a pleasure it was to be back on our clay courts in such brilliant spring weather!
Note also the Team's win over Sèvres last Sunday (See here).
We're not sure who to credit for the sunshine, but for the courts, a big thank you goes to Caroline Lambert, who looks after the grounds, Philippe Ayme-Jouve on the TC and Roland Tchertoff on the MC for all the work getting them ready.
With those tennis muscles flexed, we hope everyone is warmed up for some more organised friendly tennis, with our first Sunday Tennis Mix-In taking place this Sunday, 4 May. Just register by court #1 at 14:15 for a 14:30 start (first come, first served). We'll assign partners so everyone gets a good game during the afternoon as well as a chance to meet other tennis players with some friendly women's, men's and/or mixed doubles.
On the competition front, thanks to all those who have entered the Club's internal knock-out competition. If you have not received notice of your first opponents in the different draws, you will do so soon -- look out for emails from tournament organisers Christine Butterworth and/or Victoria Migliore. The knock-out tournament runs through May and June. Players are responsible for arranging their own matches and letting the organisers know the results. You'll get full details by email.
