Rain threatened all day on Tuesday and just before 6pm it started to come down washing out any chance of playing the round. By morning, 10.5mm was recorded.
The postponement of the round has now delayed the completion of the Winter Tennis Competition and will now be finalised (weather permitting) on Tuesday, August 27.
It is hoped that the weather will fine up for the playing of the last Round of the Inter Town Competition set down for this Sunday, August 11 when the combined team of Grenfell/Cowra will play Temora at the Grenfell Courts. Our team will need a strong outfit to defeat Temora as over the years they have always been a hard team to beat. Good luck to Grenfell/Cowra.
Apart from the nesting plovers nearby the courts, social tennis players enjoyed a good game last Thursday afternoon, August 1. The plovers, on frequent occasions dived bombed players on the court while playing. It was hoped that social tennis would go ahead yesterday afternoon. For anyone desiring a game of tennis, social tennis is available and organised on Thursdays, commencing at around 1.30 pm. You will be made most welcomed.
The Annual Seniors Tournament is not far around the corner and will take place on Saturday and Sunday, September 14 and 15.
This is a fabulous weekend of tennis so tennis players give this tournament a lot of thought and enter. More about this weekend of great tennis in later tennis news.
