GE Tennis concludes Winter League

The league is open to all affiliated tennis clubs throughout Gauteng East and were held every weekend from May 14 to June 18.

The league is clearly a firm favourite on the tennis calendar and is growing every year. With over 230 players participating this year, numbers are well up on the previous year. This year two new divisions were added: a smaller mixed division (two men and two ladies) and a Super Seniors’ divisions for 50 years and older.

“We are working hard at encouraging all tennis clubs and players to participate and together we can grow this league into the biggest in the region,” said the league organiser and chairman of Gauteng East Seniors Tennis, Owen O’Neill.

“The generous sponsorship by Schalekamp Group Holdings also added a great incentive to clubs as winners in all eight divisions won R1 000 for their clubs and runners-up R500. It was great to see corporates invest in the sport.

“Also encouraging was to have development clubs participate this year from Vosloorus and to see clubs that had disappeared off the radar come back into the fold. The whole league was played in great spirit and sportsmanship and all clubs should be commended.”

GE Seniors will hold a Summer League later in the year and also hope to host a Gauteng East Closed tournament for both juniors and seniors in August. All provincial clubs will be advised of dates once finalised.
