Town Mayor Sally-Ann Holland visited the club on Wednesday (4 November) to receive the proceeds of the tournament held recently in support of the Town Mayors Charities.

One of the tournament winners Louise Fenn presented a cheque for £100 to the mayor who was accompanied by Mayor Bear.

The players left the club knowing that there is now no tennis allowed for a month - hopefully we will be back on court in December.
