Tennis club holds presentation to celebrate success of youngsters
This celebrated the great results of the three junior tennis teams in the 2016 season.
It is only three years since the club first entered teams in the local leagues and this makes the success of the U17 and U14 teams so remarkable.

A new U17 team was then entered in Division Two and they also won the league at a canter after some close matches and thrilling wins, achieving the double.
This season’s U14 team finished a creditable fourth in the division, which was a very good result considering the young age of most of the players.
At Friday’s celebration night, team manager Alan Main presented the two Fylde league trophies and individual medals to each member of the winning teams.
