The South Warwickshire Summer Tennis League presented a top Administration Award. The trophy was the “Millennium Scroll” for the best individual Administrator of 2012 in the League. This trophy was awarded by the League Secretary Corin Bishop whose personal choice was Darren Cutler of HDA Tennis Club, Redditch. Darren had been a captain and the contact for HDA for the last fifteen years and as such is one of the longest serving members of the league in this position. He had an impeccable record this year and over many of the other seasons. Darren had led his club admirably and helped build it up to its current position and thoroughly deserves this award.
Further to this the League Secretary also decided to give the "King Cup" to HDA Redditch along with the title "Club of the Year" in 2012. This is only the third occasion that both awards were given to one club in the same year, with Studley 2006 and Shipston 2007 being the others. This decision was based first by eliminating clubs who did not enter the Junior League and also any that had been fined for rule infringements during 2012 and/or caused problems for the league administrators. This left only 7 out of 22 clubs. In fairness to others, previous winners were then discounted in order to spread the rewards, leaving only three clubs who are worthy of mention, HDA Redditch, Littletons and Snitterfield. The HDA team of captains, contacts and coaches clinched the deal with excellent communication from Darren Cutler and Paul Green from the B Team for the men and Tony Ravenscroft for the Juniors. HDA were the only club to enter three teams into the Junior League in 2012 which all reached the Play-Off Semi-Finals and HDA C reaching the Final. HDA have developed over the last fifteen years from a small run down club with poor quality courts to a strong outfit with new courts and floodlights and are fully deserving of their title Club of there Year 2012.
