Safe to say we left it all on the court today! 🥵🎾

The Army Tennis Men’s Squad headed to St George’s Hill for a 5th time.

The Fast4 doubles showdown couldn’t get much closer than this: St George’s took the day 5-4 overall, with a crazy 5 matches pushed to a deciding 3rd set tiebreak.

A massive shoutout to our hosts for the brilliant hospitality and a fantastic day out. Brilliant tennis, great company, and a proper fight till the last point! 👏🎾

British Army Tennis | Development Inter-Services 🎾

A great couple of days with a really high standard of tennis throughout — one of the best Devs competitions we’ve seen.

Plenty of strong performances across both squads. Some tight matches that could have gone either way, with a few three-setters and close 7–6 sets just not falling in our favour this time.

Men’s Results
RAF 6 | Army 3 (2nd on countback) | Navy 3

Women’s Results
RAF 6 | Army 5 | RN 1

Solid effort across the board — plenty to build on and will be be back stronger next year!

Army Women’s Masters putting in the work 💪🎾

A brilliant session today at Aldershot Tennis Centre with specialist women’s doubles coach Sophie Cockell. Over three hours, the team sharpened cross-court depth, net interceptions, and that all-important right court set-piece lob 👌

Focused coaching like this keeps our pairs match-ready for a packed season of fixtures and tournaments ahead.

🎾 Battling Hard at the Championships

The British Army Tennis Team has had an incredible experience competing in this year’s Wodonga Tennis Championships! It was a week defined by grit, determination, and some seriously tough matches for the entire squad.

A truly special highlight of the tournament was seeing a member of the and the British Army pairing up for doubles for the very first time in a tournament—a fantastic symbol of the close bond and camaraderie between our two forces. 🇬🇧🇦🇺

We want to extend a massive thank you to the organizers at Wodonga for their help in facilitating our entries and making our participation possible.

The team had the honour of meeting the legendary Margaret Court who was present at the tournament.

We also owe a huge debt of gratitude to the Australian Defence Force (ADF) for their exceptional hospitality throughout the week; you truly made us feel at home.

Every member of the team fought hard on the court, with some standout results to celebrate:
• 🏆 Capt McCaul took home the Tier 4 Singles Title after a clinical performance!
• 👏 Lt Killips & Cpl Straker put in a fantastic shift to reach the Semi-Finals of the Tier 2 Doubles.

Proud of the whole team for the spirit and sportsmanship shown throughout the competition.
