Eight clubs send juniors to new tournament

PYRAMID Hill Lawn Tennis Club held its first junior tournament in 16 years on Sunday.
The doubles event was contested by players from eight clubs - Boort, Gunbower, Calivil, Dingee, Lockington, Rochester, Pyramid Hill and  Cohuna.
Loddon tennis coach and one of the tournament sponsors Paul Condliffe said: “Weather was fantastic and we had 37 individual players in four divisions.”
“And we held a beginners division which was played as singles matches up to 21 points over hot shot nets played on a reduced size court,” he said.
Other divisions were played as doubles matches.
“There was a real buzz and the spirit of competition was great, seeing so many youngsters taking to the court.
Condliffe said the day had been made possible by the Pyramid Hill club.
“A special mention to Allison Farrer and Vaughan Herrick as well as all the parents that helped out on the day,” he said.
Division 1: Harrison Condliffe, runner-up Oscar Balic. Division 2: Chaise Hird and Jacob Malone. Runners-up: Roby Robe and Kiefer Haines. Division 3: Abbey Smith and Emily Lister. Runners-up: Jake Wiltshire and Zahli Young. Division 4: Lucy Scott. Runner-up: Madi Leerson.
