The D'Mello Shield now into its second year. It is a doubles event for which pairs are drawn on the day. Vic D'Mello was a much-loved member of our club who was especially enthusiastic when it came to social doubles events. The winning pair on the day will have won roughly 5-6 rounds of doubles: certainly not for the faint-hearted!
I am delighted to let you all know that Ollie M and Claudio M won the D’Mello shield today - a truly deserved win against two strong opponents, Dave K and Nathan B, an amazing final which was a perfect end to an afternoon of fabulous tennis from everyone!
Thank you to Noah for all his hard work in the build up to the day very much appreciated!
Thank you also to Maria and Sharon my partners in crime for the afternoon who helped with scoring, baking and generally keeping things together. But the biggest thanks go to everyone who played today. It was lovely to welcome some newer members to the club you were all amazing not least given the rather warm weather.
Thanks also to everyone who came to support our event this year Victor would have been very proud.
See you all on finals day if not before
