Our May American tournament was played on Sunday and this monthly event is proving to be very popular and highly entertaining. Sarah Seoige and Kieran Mc Carthy were not partners but after two hours of friendly tennis they emerged as the leading lady and gent on May day.
Gertie O’ Rourke, Mary Jo O’ Farrell and Maeve Bass were winners in the ladies leagues during the past week. Jeremy and Tim Clarke are going very well in group A of the men’s league and it will be the match to see which brother will win the group and reign supreme on the men’s pyramid. Rob Kearney was also a winner lately. All matches have to be played by May 19th.
Rob Kearney and Dave Costello played steady consistent tennis last Monday night having an excellent time on the courts.
Olivia Sumner and Michelle Clyne were competitive during Tuesday night’s two hour session of doubles tennis.
Sarah Seoige and Marek Rose combined successfully and had many winners against the other partnerships last Thursday.
