It was a busy Sunday for our U11 teams in County Cup action this weekend. In Carlisle, the Boys beat South of Scotland 6-0 to post a final finish of 5th place. [see reel in Stories for their match point win in the doubles]

Meanwhile at Craiglockhart, the girls lost 5–1 against West of Scotland and were narrowly beaten by North of Scotland in a shootout, but they still finished 2nd overall.

Well done everyone - and captains Michael and Julia - for their great efforts over the weekend.

Did you know...Tennis started life in 12th century France where it was originally played by monks as a form of entertainment during ceremonial occasions.

Players would use the palm of their hands to hit a ball back and forth over the net in a game called 'jeu de paume' meaning 'game of the palm'. In time, a black leather glove was used and in the 16th century a handle was added to the glove which formed the first racquet.
