WCTC Championship 2022

Congratulations to all club members who entered the Club Championships this year. Your participation ensured that it was an outstandingly successful weekend. The Club Championships were resurrected last year in an attempt to bring players of all standards together, to enjoy each other’s company, to make new friends and, of course, to play tennis.

In total, 79 players took to the courts ranging in age from six to well over sixty. This number was about 25 more than last year so definitely 100 plus is a realistic goal for 2023! It was especially impressive to see so many girls and ladies playing in their respective divisions and also the ‘hotshot’ kids whose collective enthusiasm and skill is so scarily good it ensures a bright future for our Club.

Congratulations to Tom Fuller and Holly Nolan who are the WCTC Open Champions. Both are wonderful players and fully deserve to have their names etched into Club history. Special mention to Tom who also won the Men’s Doubles with Dan Green and the Mixed with Joanne Adams. One of the most keenly contested events was the newly added, Parent/Child Doubles. Although played in exceptionally fine spirit, a competitive, steely edge was evident in all matches, many of which went right down to the final game. Congratulations to Nathan and David Franklin who will be keen to defend their title next year.

WCTC Championship 2021

So what a fantastic start to our inaugural Weston Creek Club Championships, held 17th & 18th April 2021. With a final number of 54 players, which was a fantastic effort, across 10 events, apart from the great tennis played by all players across all events it was played in such great club spirits. No doubt one of the big highlights was the range of players from juniors to adults participating, in both open & junior events. The role modelling was a great testimony to all players & created a unique & fantastic atmosphere, that makes us proud to be part of this great tennis Club, The Weston Creek Tennis Club.

Many thanks to Carl Jackson & Tony Laudenbach for all their efforts before & during the event & of course our tireless committee, who helped on the BBQ & encouraged all players. Well done Peter, Brian, Clair, Lorraine & Maggie.

We look forward to this event again bigger & better for 2022!!!
