As of Friday 22nd May, 5 of our ladies’ teams are currently TOP of their respective division (and the other one is 2nd). This has to be a record in all 80 years of tennis Oadby Granville !!!

National Club League Ladies’ 1sts
Ladies’ 1sts
Ladies’ 3rds
Ladies’ 4ths
Ladies’ 5ths

Obviously, this all depends on the number of matches played/results entered etc, but it’s still worth enjoying it while we can !!

Very sad to hear this news. Although Carisbrooke was Gene’s club for many years, he was also a member at Oadby Granville for quite a few years, playing in regular fixed fours. In 2023 there was a 75 age gap between him and Jack B when they both played in the club’s opening season tournament (there is a photograph in the comments). A true legend in Leicestershire tennis.

We have some very sad news to share that Gene Harris passed away this weekend.

Gene held the club close to his heart for many years, serving as a joint Head Coach and inspiring hundreds of players of all levels—many of whom went on to compete at a very high standard. He also enjoyed a distinguished playing career himself, representing the club and county, and proudly playing for Great Britain in his age group, including in the USA.

Rest in peace, Gene. You will always be a part of The Brooke. ❤️

Please share this message with the wider tennis community. It would be lovely if people could reply with their stories or pictures of Gene.
