Aegon Junior Teams – Any Parents for Captains?
This year we have 5 junior teams in the Aegon Surrey Leagues. Two Under 8’s, Under 9’s, Under 10’s and an Under 16 boys team and an Under 16 girls team. Last year I captained all of the teams but this year I would like the parents to help to organise the fixtures and find a team for each match.
If any parents would be interested in helping to captain one of our teams please let me know. I would provide you with a list of players and you would need to make sure we get a team for each fixture (only 5 fixtures) and help to set up the courts if it is a home match at Cranleigh.
New Junior Box Leagues – Need a Few More Players!
I would like to start some Junior Box Leagues for players aged 10-16 years. They will arrange matches with other players in their division. This will be great to increase junior participation and the standards within the club. All matches will count towards their LTA rating. If your son or daughter would be interested please let me know. Entry £10 for 12 months.
If you are interested in any of the team competitions please let me know on 07740194200 or email grant@limitlesstennis.co.uk.
