After a hard fought and successful year for the AEGON Team Tennis League in Leicestershire, it is now time to celebrate at the Tennis Leicestershire 2nd Annual Junior Presentation Day on Sunday 29 November at Leicester Grammar School, Great Glen in Leicester.
This year over 800 players participated in over 23 leagues and Leicestershire moved into 5th place nationally in the league table of regularly competing juniors.
The afternoon not only gives an opportunity to congratulate winning teams but to say thank you to the Junior Organisers, parents and coaches who put in so much time and effort during the league season.
The afternoon will be structured as follows:-
Arrive: 14.00 - juniors (dependent on weather) to be given a chance to hit on outdoor courts under the guidance of a team of coaches. Please bring your own racket. There will also be an opportunity for mini red, orange, green and hard balls players to join in fun drills
Parents/Organisers 14.00 – Refreshments in the comfortable surroundings of the Grammar School’s new panoramic pavilion .
Approx: 15.00 (may be brought forward if weather inclement) refreshments for juniors with presentation to AEGON Team Tennis winners (6 medals will be given out to all winning teams and a framed certificate to all group winners).
Volunteer helpers will receive a small gift in recognition of their efforts.
New this year is an award for the junior making the greatest team contribution towards the AEGON league. This is not necessarily the best player but the boy or girl contributing most to the team, possibly through attitude, dependability or helpfulness. Nominations need to be returned to the county office by Monday 16 November at the latest.
