Tennis Match v Maplebrook starts with a promise but the weather has the last say!

Having experienced the disappointment of two cancelled matches already, the DDS Tennis team were looking forward to playing Maplebrook School with some of our younger players making only their second appearance in the team. It was also exciting for me as these players have made so much progress this year, and I knew they would be playing some great tennis. Due to an early start,some matches were able to be completed. Sean won 6-3 against his 18 year old opponent, Danielle coolly dispatched her opponent 6-2 and Maddy and Paige won a very exciting match 6-4. Both Sasha and Zach were leading in games when the downpour occurred, as too were Charlotte and Alexa in a very tight doubles match. Unfortunately, no-one else got much of a look-in as the heavens opened and put paid to all our aspirations! Never mind, we still have Wlmbledon Wednesday next week for our players to show their metal, this time against parents and staff. Strawberries and ice-cream for all!!
