SUNSHINE greeted players at Salcombe Tennis Club this week and the courts looked fabulous as well.

On Thursday 30 May, eight ladies entered a fun, in-house tournament with many close and long rallies featured.

Lisa Latham, who solidly hit the ball and was steady in her approach, was the winner by three points, showing the other entrants that in these tournaments concentration and playing every shot to count is the way to win. A lovely lunch rounded off the event with the players bringing along their tasty contributions.

The Salcombe men will get their turn to compete in a tournament on Wednesday 19 June, which will be run by coach Mike White. Mike is also busy with the Rusty Returners- coaching available to members.

Ladies' coaching is available on Wednesday, with Salcombe Primary School enjoying sessions too as the club look to promote girls’ tennis. Visit www.salcombe.tennis.club for more information.
