Juniors tested in tricky conditions

Kingston def Lucindale Roos 53-37 games
Some great Southern Ports Junior Tennis Association games were played in chilly but sunny Lucindale.

Jacob and Anna were a good match for Jimmy and Harry and Kingston got the win 6-3.

Ernie and George outplayed Hudson and Katie in their double to get the 7-5 win for Lucindale.

A third close double between Charles/Catherine and Chloe/Emilie saw Kingston win the tie break.

Some more close scores in the singles made for excellent shots from both teams and Kingston came away with the win in the end.

Thanks to Emilie Schaefer for dusting off the racket and filling in last minute, as well as Anna Rasheed, as the flu took out three of Kingston’s regular players.

A big thanks to Jack and Aston for filling in.

Lucindale Koalas def Millicent/Beachport 48-32 games

It was great to have the sun shining in Lucindale.
