“Play in Pink” Mixed Social Tennis in aid of the Marie Keating Foundation
The sun came out in full Wimbeldon-worthy glory for our Play in Pink Tennis Social in aid of the Marie Keating Foundation last Saturday, 12th July. And so did the members, the sandwiches, and the spirits (both emotional and alcoholic!)
From midday, GLTC was a vision in pink, sunglasses were necessary not just for the sun but to cope with the sea of pink. Tennis got off to a strong start, with some serious rallies and some questionable footwork. Meanwhile, our amazing members laid out a feast of sandwiches, cakes and treats that would make the Bake-off blush, with competing pavlovas, chocolate eclairs, fluffy sponges and branded cupcakes!!
The Pimms and Dingle Gin which were generously donated by The Grapevine flowed just enough to enhance court confidence, while Musgraves strawberries kept us feeling like honorary Centre Court VIP’s. The raffle prizes, also kindly donated by members, sparked some fierce competition (mainly between people who weren’t as successful in the actual tennis!)
But the real winner of the day was the Marie Keating Foundation with an incredible €3154 raised for this vital cause. That’s a lot of slices, serves and scones for a great day’s work! A huge thank you to everyone who played, watched, baked, donated, poured, picked tickets and wore pink with pride. Same time next year? Start perfecting your serves and your sponge cake!
