Manly Lawn Tennis Club Newsletter – Finals Report
Club Captain’s Report
AND THEN THERE WAS ONE
Manly 5 Men’s were our only winning Badge Team this year as our other two men’s teams were both defeated 5-3 in their respective finals match.
Manly 5 def Hunters Hill 3 at home 5 sets to 2
This was a very high standard match and the Manly team played their best tennis at the right time to defeat a strong Hunters Hill Team.
A fired up Hugo together with Alec set up victory by splitting sets with the pair with the best percentage in division 8 this year. Meanwhile Graham and Tom were beating the other pair in straight sets.With a 3-1 lead at the break Hugo and Alec won their 2 sets against the other pair easily whilst Graham and Tom lost a close set to the better pair.
Time was called with Manly winning 5-2.
Chris Diaz and Denis watched on whilst Richard Badham was getting updated results whilst trekking the Bonnie Hills of Scotland. Gavin also played one match and was watching on.
There were some strong teams in Division 8 this year but by coming first and getting a home court advantage was the key to success.
Manly 2 Lost 5-3 away at Kooroora
A close loss but nevertheless a successful season for this team.
This was a very strong division also and our guys went down to the wire.
Sam and Warren won 2 sets whilst Bosko and Steve Nettleton won 1 set.
Other team members were Todd Maloney Jono Walker Harry Faeste Steve Wilkins
Nick Horton and Chris Green.
Manly 7 lost 5-3 away at Sydney Olympic Park
A close loss again to a team that had a perfect record in Badge was a gutsy effort.
Our guys played extremely well to a team that consisted of tennis coaches.
Barnaby and Tom won 2 sets and Dave and Stu won one set.
The team can be very proud of their performance this season.
Tony Hamilton captained the team well and played several matches as did Brett Luntz .
Ray Dummett and Mark Flogel also played one match each.
Thursday Ladies
Won 6-2 v Roseville to take 3rd place
After missing the final on percentages our ladies took 3rd place in the playoff
Erryn and Lisa won 4 sets Michelle Lindy 2 sets.
Well played Ladies.
Our thoughts now turn to the Club Championships which will be held in the last two weeks of October.
Details will be announced next week and entries will open then.
Adios amigos
