INTRACLUB PENNANTS
7pm Thursday night
During Term
Thursday Night is an intraclub pennant night open to members and non-members. We run 4 seasons across each year with each season running 8-9 weeks, roughly in line with the school terms. Each evening players play 1 set of singles and 2 sets of doubles. All playing levels are welcome, with the format designed to pair you against players of similar ability. Please note that all players play singles so the ability and fitness for this is required. Play starts at 7pm until around 9pm, depending on the length of the sets.
Afterwards, the bar is open for everyone to enjoy a chat and relive the nights highlights over a couple of cold ones. For more information contact James AH 0488 624 341 or email jandamc86@gmail.com

THE BTC SANDERSON CUP
April - May
The BTC Sanderson Cup has been a fixture on the Busselton Tennis Club calendar for 25 years. Originally created by Di Sanderson and Janet Dickinson, the Sanderson Tournament attracts players from all over the SW Ladies Pennant Zone. The purpose of the comp was to offer pennant ladies another comp to participate in at the end of the pennant season and to allow non-pennant players and players thinking about joining pennants a chance to play in a competition similar to pennants.
It is played at Busselton Tennis Club over 5 weeks from the end of April to the end of May. It’s a lot of fun and the comp finishes with a mystery round. Coordinator Merryl (0433 119 884) and her assistant Wendy (0499 838 740) will start collecting names towards the end of the pennant season.
