Play Tennis, get fit, meet people, make friends!

Announcing a new evening club night…

Thursdays: 7pm till 9pm

Ladies: this is your night!

Starting on 8th October and going through the winter. 

Men:     If the Friday club night doesn’t suit you then this is your night too!

 This club night is targeted at members who would like to play more matches/ more often and also those who have been attending coaching sessions and feel they would like to take the next step and start playing regularly throughout the year.

 Matches will tend to be mostly doubles but singles may be an option (subject to court availability of course).

Each night will cost £2 a head to cover the cost of the floodlights. This will be collected on the night. Please bring correct change if you can.

The Club’s new Ladies Captain Emily John-Davis had to save a match point in the second set before winning a tightly fought match against Kimberly Pallister 5-7, 7-6, 6-2.

The Club’s Men’s Singles Tableau 2 final was won by Shay Ginat who dominated his match against John Dalkiran and won 6-2, 6-2.  The men’s doubles was a repeat of the last two years and Nick Crowson and Martin Trawford re-instated themselves as Club Champions by defeating Marc Sumner and Mark Pallister by 6-4, 7-6. 

The Ladies Doubles was won by Penny Cooper and Kimberly Pallister who defeated Emily John-Davis and Lucy Watts 6-4, 6-2.  Alex Smith led the way for the Juniors, winning the Boys under 18 singles against William Bourne.

STAMFORD TEAMS ARE HAVING ONE OF THEIR MOST SUCCESSFUL YEARS

With the season coming to an end, all of our teams have done particularly well this year and enjoyed some excellent tennis.

 In Peterborough & District leagues:

A Team - ended up 2nd again, it must be over 5 years in a row they’ve ended up 2nd - maybe next year!

B Team - following their promotion from Division 2, they had their highest ever finish, coming 4th and establishing themselves in Division 1.

C Team - currently leading Division 2 and almost certain to be promoted to Division 1 next year.

D Team - they pushed the C Team all the way and ended a very creditable 4th

E Team - they are still in contention for promotion too and depending on Nens last match, they might still get it

F Team - they also were in contention for promotion too and have ended up just missing out in 4th

 Here’s the latest tables.
