    This was a great success and we had some of our own players enter, which was great. It was a high standard of tennis and some amazing matches to be seen. There was a huge amount of support, and thanks to everyone who helped out.

    Special thanks to all of the junior committee: Michelle vFoster, Michelle McBride, Gavin Fox, Rachael Ryan, Paula Murphy, and Ronan Burke. Ronan was responsible for the roster of umpires that we had, and it worked really well. We had loads of compliments on the tournament. Thank you, everyone.
