THANK YOU, TENNIS AFICIONADOS, FOR STAYING ACTIVE ON THE COURTS DESPITE THE RESTRICTIONS AND FRUSTRATIONS OF THE PAST TWO YEARS. THE FIRST HALF OF THIS YEAR HAS BEEN DOMINATED BY REOPENING AND POSITIVE CHANGE, WITH MANY TOURNAMENTS AND SOCIAL EVENTS SCHEDULED IN THE MONTHS AHEAD.
NEW EVENTS AND A NEW ONLINE BOOKING SYSTEM We began the year by adding many new programmes, including two new junior groups on Saturdays, a one-day tournament for our Academy and Pre-academy level players, and two new beginner groups for adults in the morning and evening respectively. In addition, we hosted our first WITS Ladies’ D Team, and resumed our Apero Tennis Socials on Wednesday evenings from 7pm to 8.30pm, with a great turnout. We also transitioned to an online booking system for private lessons, to provide easy access to lessons for newcomers.
OUR FIRST JUNIOR TENNIS TOURNAMENT After two years of no tournaments at the Swiss Club, we successfully organised our inaugural Swiss Club Junior Tennis Tournament on 21 May 2022. The first tournament post-pandemic restrictions was very well-received, with more than 25 kids participating and pitting their tennis skills against each other on a sunny Saturday. Congratulations to all of our young players who took part, and a special shoutout to Tiago and Paul who won the Academy level and pre-Academy level respectively.
