One of these is the annual tennis match we play against Bildeston.

Hadleigh were victorious on that occasion. This tradition was revived in 2011 and has continued as an annual event ever since. Hadleigh tennis club currently hold both the men’s and ladies’ trophies, see this space next month for this year’s results. The match will be on September 6th at Bildeston. The after-match refreshments are eagerly anticipated.

The ladies winter league entries are being made, and the team are looking forward to some enjoyable Saturday morning tennis, hopefully without too many weather related disruptions.

Following some outstanding tennis from both teams, Hadleigh emerged victorious in both the Gentleman's and Ladies' tennis matches to reclaim the "Challenge" trophies from Bildeston Tennis club and bring them back home! The men winning all of their 3 matches conclusively and the Ladies winning two to one in a nail biting finish which went to a tie-break, with Hadleigh winning that 7-5. Following the matches, there was a chance to chat and relax with a lovely buffet and refreshments laid on by the home team. We look forward to next year, when Hadleigh will be the home team and looking to retain the trophies again.
