Congratulations to the lucky winners.

 To make sure you stand a chance in next year’s draw, sign up to British Tennis

All adult club members are welcome to participate. We hope you can make it.

To all Wantage Tennis Club Committee members from the Secretary.

First of all, on behalf of the committee a big thank you to the 30 people who attended the AGM this Tuesday. It is the participation of the many, not just a few, that  makes the club a great place to enjoy a game of tennis.

At the meeting we also said goodbye as a club to last year’s chairman Dave Saunders who is leaving the club. Dave did a lot up front and behind the scenes for the club during his year and we are sorry to see him go.

The new committee is:

Officers:

Steve Thompson               Chairman

Richard Saunders               Vice Chairman

Peter Hart                         Treasurer

Chris Gray                         Secretary

Carole Smythe                  Ladies Club Captain

Paul Homersham               Mens Club Captain.

Ordinary Committee Members

Anne Jones, Sue Cronin, Paul & Gill Richards, Tim Ramirez, Judi Wilde and Jacky Dunn.

A couple of other points.

(1)                        If you would like to see a copy of the committee minutes when they become available, rather than looking in the clubhouse, just let me know and I will put you on the distribution list.

(2)                        Please sign up to British Tennis before November 30^th so that the Club can have an increased allocation of Wimbledon tickets! It’s absolutely free!    You will also become eligible for Wimbledon tickets yourself. You can sign up at http://www.lta.org.uk/britishtennismembership/

Happy Tennissing
