The Warwickshire county champs for tennis and padel took place in the last week of the school holidays and we had good representation from Clifton. Hugo and Rafael played in the mini events and both won matches (with Hugo narrowly missing out on the knock out stages by the narrowest of margins in under 8s). Will Harvey won the 18u doubles with his partner Dylan and was finalist in the men’s singles and the under 18s. Jessica P, who is coached by Brian, completed the double being crowned 14U singles champion and also doubles champ with her friend Freya from Kenilworth. Mollie L switched her focus to padel and became the first girls 14U champ the county has had, with her friend Elsie from Birmingham. Kathryn and Dan Heathcote also played in the padel mixed and Kathryn won a prize for being the oldest participant over the whole weekend!

Our members had a lovely time at the club’s adult tournament earlier this month. The weather as well as the tennis were fantastic. They were prizes for the competitors, as well as prosecco and strawberries for all to enjoy afterwards

What a week for our Clifton players.
Jessica and Mollie have had a very successful half term.
Jessica has played and won an 18U singles competition, a 14 and under doubles with Mollie and was runner up in 18U doubles with fellow Warks player Ava.
Mollie has also had a super week. Starting off with a 14U tournament singles win, she then had the doubles win with Jess and ended the week winning a 16U singles competition at Kenilworth.

In addition Jessica and William were invited to the Birmingham Classic at Edgbaston Priory as the guests of Warwickshire Tennis where they received special awards from Warwickshire LTA; Jessica for her contribution to the 12U county cup girls team and William for ‘dynamic doubles’ in the 18U county cup team.
Both Jessica and Mollie are coached individually by Brian Heathcote. He also still works with William who is now ranked no. 29 in the UK for under 16s.

This year’s ‘Play your way to Wimbledon’ event at Clifton was won by Lena with Amelia runner up. This pair played regularly in our ladies B team last year (the team that won the Rugby and District league!) but for the final they were opposite sides of the net! Lena now goes through to play at the county finals in June. The Warwickshire winner then goes through to play at Wimbledon in August. Both Lena and Amelia are coached by Brian Heathcote
