The Notts LTA Club Champions Tournament took place last weekend on the International grass courts at the Nottingham Tennis Centre.

League Clubs nominated 43 competitors for the four sections of Mens Singles & Doubles and Ladies Singles & Doubles.  Only the Club Champions from each club are allowed to enter.

Despite a number of players withdrawing, John Poxon, assisted by Greg Ella, managed the tournament with great efficiency over the hot summer weekend.  All the players appreciated being able to play on the superb grass courts.

The trophies and plaques will be presented at the Annual Awards Night in early 2011.   The magnificent trophies were kindly donated by Edith Middleton and date back to her many successes in the county and beyond.

The final results were as follows:

Mens Singles.    The Edith Middleton Challenge Cup.
Tom Hannah (Retford) bt Peter Godber (Lady Bay)  6-7  6-4  10-8.

Ladies Singles.  The Edith Middleton Challenge Rose Bowl.
Rachel Wood (West Bridgford) was the overall winner of this a Round Robin event.

Ladies Doubles.
