JUNIOR tennis has wrapped up after a season that has seen more than 100 children playing tennis each week.
Volunteers and parents have run a hotshots program, junior coaching, and singles and doubles competition matches throughout the season.
Kelly Hill, who has convened the junior program for the last several years, said the future of tennis in the region was bright.
“It has been so pleasing to watch the children progress through the ranks to the point where many of them are playing a really great brand of tennis,” Ms Hill said.
“I want to thank the parents and volunteers who’ve turned up each Friday night to coach, umpire, score, and cook sausages.”
The Section One grand final winner was Team Sinner, which consisted of Lucas Argus, Ben Adcock, and Luke Carrington.
The boys prevailed by 11 games over Team Sabalenka, featuring Grace McKellar and Bethan and Alex Burton.
In Section Two, Team Kokkinakis, consisting of Asha Embling, Skye Cameron, and Hunter O’Bree, was just a bit too strong for Team Rybakina, which included Will Roob, Audrey Anderson, and Olivia Kelly.
The score was 32 games to 30.
Junior tennis will resume in October.
