On the Sunday afternoon following Wimbledon finals day, Hemyock Tennis Club held its own version of the great event with a mixed doubles tournament followed by champagne, strawberries, tea and cakes.
The sun shone brightly as 20 couples battled it out for the top spot, with the triumphant winners each getting a bottle of wine. Everyone agreed it was a lovely way to spend the afternoon and warm thanks went to the organiser, Sue, and to Anne, who looked after the refreshments. Hemyock Tennis Club has 3 new courts (two with floodlights), a pavilion, a ball machine and a resident coach and welcomes new members.
