Tennis Family Fun Day Postponed

tennisNormally, we hear that rain has stopped play where tennis concerned.

But this time it’s not the weather that has interrupted proceedings.

Unfortunately we have had to postpone the Family Fun Day of tennis and a barbecue on Saturday, May 3rd at the Amovate Tennis Courts on the Monte Clerigo road from Vale da Telha.

We have been informed that a high number of the tennis club members will be away that weekend and it was felt it would be best to call off the event and move it to a day later in the summer.

Remember, this will be a fun day for all the family and there will be no charge. All we ask is that you bring your own picnics etc. and for some of you to join in the tennis.

When we fix a new date, we’ll let you have full details of the day’s proceedings.
