2024 Recreational Wheelchair Tennis Doubles Event

Saturday 11th & Sunday 12th May 2024 at

THE SHREWSBURY CLUB, SUNDORNE ROAD, SHREWSBURY SY1 4RG

In 2024 we hosted another successful Recreational Wheelchair Tennis Doubles event. We had 18 players taking part which involved players changing partners 3 times on Saturday and then going into more of a knock out style of competition on Sunday with the same partner. The matches were all played in great spirit and it was a really fun and social weekend. The tournament dinner, held at the Shrewsbury Club, was attended by most players and we ran our usual fundraising raffle with some great prizes on offer.

We wish to offer a big thank you to all the friendly staff at the Shrewsbury Club who made us very welcome, especially the catering staff who kept us very well fed! Also a big thank you to our Referee Mike Hayes for his spectacular organisation and to our Trustee Noel who also puts in a lot of work to get the weekend running smoothly on court. EPC Wheelchairs provided a repair service and donated prizes to our winners which is always appreciated!
