​
On top of that below is a message from our new Ladies Senior Teams Organiser, Janette Harris...
"My name is Jannette Harris and I have recently taken on the role of Cheshire Tennis Ladies Senior County Teams Organiser. As I’m sure you are aware Cheshire has many teams from a variety of age groups that represent Cheshire nationally.
These age groups range from the 35 & Over to the 75 & Over. There are usually 4/5 matches each year, some home and some away.
During the Jan/Feb/March the Cheshire Captains will be organising training/trials for their individual age groups. These will be held at indoor venues and are being subsidised by the county. There is just a small charge of £5 to £7 per player. If you are interested in putting yourself forward to be considered to represent the county and would like to participate in the training/trials we would love to see you!
Please direct message me on: 07715 169 269 and I will ensure your details are passed onto the relevant Captain. These are fabulous opportunities to play great tennis, meet other players/captains and improve your rating. There is always a wide range of abilities and excellent tennis for everyone. If you have any questions in regard to the above please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me."
