The third and last tournament for the month of March was held on Sunday. A cool morning turned into a perfect autumn day. A very strong field played the men’s doubles competition. And the tennis was fantastic. Well done to our club junior Oscar who teamed up with his dad and played very well.
The semifinals were played between Rod Smith/Shaun Summers vs Kieran Naidoo/Declan Geard and Jordon Lovick/Isaac White vs Ken Ho/Grant Smith. A fiercely fought final between Kieran and Declan against Ken and Grant was won by Kieran and Declan. Congratulations to everyone on some amazing tennis.

Congratulations to Grant Smith & Belinda Lovick who won our recent Fast 4 Tournament in an exciting tiebreaker final against Betty Griggs and Sonny Targett. Play stopped to toss a coin to decide the final serve in the finals and the next serve decided the winning team. Such a perfect finish to our Fast 4 day of competition.

Our Fast 4 Tournaments are very social & extremely popular with partnerships drawn from a hat on the day.
Thanks to Ralph & Paris, Shelley & Aaron, Jill & Andrew, Sue-Anne & Hugh, Ange & Henry, Chris & Jo Thwaite’s, Jo Drake & Rod and Rebecca & Ranuo for another fantastic day of tennis.

Our semi finalists were Chris & Jo Thwaite’s and Ange & Henry who played great competitive tennis all day.

2025 Ladies Singles Championship 🎾

Our Longford Tennis Club ladies singles day was held recently and what a fantastic day of tennis it was!

With Jo-Ellen, Margit, Louise, Stacey, Heidi and Sarah competing in a round robin, there were plenty of close matches and great rallies throughout the day.

Sarah and Heidi battled it out for the B-grade title in a closely contested match with Sarah just taking the win.

A tight contest between Louise and Margit saw Louise advance to the A-grade final against defending champion Jo-Ellen. In the end, Jo-Ellen dug deep to retain her title as our 2025 Ladies A-Grade Champion.

Congratulations to all players for some brilliant tennis and great company!
