Under 12 Boys 1st Team - Division 2B Champs!

A massive well done to all the boys for winning Division 2B this Autumn. It came down to the last game game played between Titwood And Giffnock with the result going in our favour!

Boys 1st Team Squad:

Daniel Armstrong
Jack Beaton
Jack Boyle
Findlay MacKenzie
& Sean Miller

Each boy played all but one match and it was a real team effort from all!

Considering the quality of the teams our boys played, holding their nerve so many times in tie breaks was the vital difference.

Well done to everyone, and well done to Daniel Armstrong for finishing the second highest ranked player in the league (out of a pool of 37), and Jack Boyle at 7th place as well.

Friday Nights - Winter Doubles

Our very popular ‘Friday Winter Doubles League’ is BACK!!

 

 Josh Hahn has once again agreed to oversee the ‘Friday Night Doubles League’ which will start back for its' fifth year on Friday 30th October 2015. In Josh’s absence, Craig Beaton or Colin Scott will deputise.

 

This is a social ‘league’, open to all adult players of all standards, and juniors who regularly attend Wednesday club night and/or play in senior teams. Just come down to the club on Friday nights at any time from 7pm through the winter weeks (weather dependent of course!).

 

Play as few or as many sets as you like.  Play the Fridays that suit, or every week! The emphasis is on fun & laughs with tennis friends and keeping us all ticking over during the winter. Why not consider taking part on Fridays when you are free? You get points for simply playing a set and with a new playing partner each set is a great leveller & keeps it very fair!

 

• Mixing: Cannot play with the same partner twice on the same night (numbers allowing of course).  First four or next four available players play a set. Pairs decided by spinning rackets
• Set Format: 1st to 6 games (max 11 games). 1st deuce point played normally and then 2nd deuce point concludes the game - receivers choice on deciding point
• Scoring: 3 points per set won & 1 point each per set lost. You can play as many sets as you like, but only your best 3 set results count towards your evening’s accumulated points total (e.g. 4 sets won and 2 lost = maximum of 9 points, you cannot claim all 14 points!) Only set results recorded on the night will be added to the table
• Cost: £1 per night (to cover lights). Individual results will not be counted if player has not paid
• League Table: The results will be updated on the website: http://www.clarkstonbtc.org.uk/doublesleague.html
