Happy New Year to all, 2026 is off to a roaring start at the club. Our courts have been really busy with members and visitors over the holiday period. We saw record numbers attend for our Australia Day themed Saturday social play. Congratulations to Mike Howe winning best dressed. (See pics below)
Saturday Social from 1pm, Sunday social runs now from 5pm to 7pm and Thursday social from 6.30 to 8.30pm, Monday and Wednesday Ladies from 8am, open to all organised tennis members and visitors. $10 fee for non-members and casual members. No need to put your name in, just turn up.
Midweek Ladies have also seen record numbers during January.
Mid-week social ladies Australia Day fun
In good humour and inspired by Kirsty's recent (on court) fashion faux pa, the inaugural Australia Day Inside Out Fun Day has become part of the mid-week social ladies' calendar of events.
Not only did some wear their underwear 'inside out' but non matching shoes and size & washing instruction tags were all on display.
It was a morning of challenging tennis in between showers and gusty winds, but the camaraderie and fun kept spirits high. Pictured below in the Australia Day fun collage are Kirsty (the inspiration), Nicola and Grace (fashion winners) with Penny (mid-week co-ordinator). It will be on again on Wednesday this week for people who may have missed today.
Senior and Junior Club championships will be held in March (dates above), more information will come out in the next Snippets but it is never too early to start looking for Doubles/Mixed partners. Of course, I am happy to help you find a partner.
Captain’s Table Luncheon @ Clairault Streicker Winery 22nd February, please see details below. Only a few tickets left so please contact me ASAP if you would like to join.
Lastly, good luck to all our Dunsborough ladies playing in the Gala Day at Busselton Tennis club this coming Thursday, and don't forget AFL Footy Tipping which Mandy is running again (this year it's on the App rather than a manual process).
