🎾 Derby League action this week!

Our Women’s 1st Team were in action against Duffield 2nd Ladies in a thriller. It was a close contest, with 3 rubbers going all the way to match tie-breaks! Congratulations to Duffield on edging it 5-4 👏

Meanwhile, our Men’s 2nd Team faced Little Eaton and produced a dominant 9-0 win, not dropping a single rubber 💪🔥

Great effort from both teams, with plenty more matches to come this week 👀🎾

Our tennis club is more than just a place to play – it’s a community, and few people have done more to build that community than the Rushby family.

For over 20 years, they have been instrumental in getting people on court, introducing new players to the game, encouraging juniors and adults alike, and helping our club thrive. Their dedication, kindness and enthusiasm have touched so many lives within our tennis family.

Now, as Ottilie bravely faces neuroblastoma, we have an opportunity to support them in return.

A GoFundMe page has been created to help the family through this incredibly difficult journey. If you are able to contribute, any donation – no matter the size – will make a difference. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing the page with others.

If you’ve ever picked up a racket, attended a club session, or benefited from the warm welcome that makes our club special, there’s a good chance this family played a part in it.

As a club, we are keeping Ottilie and her family in our thoughts and sending them all our love and support.

Thank you for helping us support a family that has given and continues to give so much to our club and our community.
