Basford Men's Aegon Team Tennis team claimed the Staffordshire Division One title after an 8-4 win over Lichfield Friary. Wins earlier in the season over Tettenhall and Lichfield Tennis Club had seen the side needing a victory today to secure the title. The club will now go on to play in the regional tier of the competition- Well done to the team
Basford's Amy Ellis had a successful weeks tennis during half term- Amy first won both the under 16s and 18s titles at the grade 3 event in Tipton and then went on to represent Staffordshire in the under 18s county cup. The team just missed out on promotion with Amy winning all 3 singles matches and a vital doubles rubber on the last day. Fellow Basford member Hannah Parker was also a member of the team and performed well on all 3 days.
The club championships began last night with the Men's singles. Josh Maughan and Mike Armstrong will contest the final. All other events begin next week so there's still time to put your name down on the notice board.
Basford A will play Draycott A in the final of the Dale cup - this will take place at Stone Tennis Club on the 13th September at 10:30am.
