Success for Millie and Raz at Colchester & District Finals Day

Two of our top junior players reached the Colchester  District Finals Day held at Frinton-on-Sea Lawn Tennis Club on 9th September.

Razvan Bulancea played a 3 set match on the grass and coming out of the blocks all guns blazing winning the first set but in the intense heat was unable to maintain his lead and lost by 2 sets to 1.

Millie Davidsen battled hard in a very close match, losing the first set 5-7 but taking the next two sets 7-5, 7-5 for a well deserved victory.

Great tennis from both players – well done!

 

Junior Players enjoying great success in matches

With 10 Braintree Junior teams entered into the Halstead and District Junior League this season there are great opportunities for our budding tennis players to practice in competitive and fun match play. 

The league has gotten off to a great start this season with lots of players winning matches and most importantly gaining lots of match experience that is invaluable to their improvement.

If you haven’t been able to get involved in any matches yet this season but are keen to get playing, our Junior Cup Championships being held over the May Bank Holiday Weekend (27th – 29th) present a great opportunity to play some informal matches in an environment they’re comfortable in. If you want to get involved let Rob know on 07710 420226 or robhardyptc@gmail.com.

There is also the opportunity to play some individual LTA competitions if you are looking to take your game even further! Our very own Amelia Kizelbach has been playing lots of individual comps that have taken her to top 5 in the county and to the National Championships in 2022!

If you are interested in playing some LTA competitions more info can be found through the link below and you can contact Rob if you have any questions.
