CAPTAINS’ UPDATE

BLUE & GOLD RETURNS
We’ve been invited to enter the ‘Blue and Gold’ which is being run by Glenageary Tennis Club this year. This is a social, inter-club tournament running over 5 Friday evenings from 28th February to April. Each team comprises 4 mixed doubles pairs with Classes 3/4, 5/6, 7 and non-league represented. Please email sandycovecaptains@gmail.com if you would be interested in playing. We will need subs so even if you’re not available every Friday please don’t let that put you off!

WINTER LEAGUE KICKS OFF
Meanwhile Winter League is underway with 14 teams taking to the courts last Sunday. The men got off to a great start with five out of six wins while the ladies were a little unlucky with just three wins out of eight. All set for battle this Sunday with four mens’ teams at home in the morning and 4 Ladies teams in the afternoon. This league continues throughout February with Playoffs in March.

OTHER LEAGUES
Finally, the Men’s Easter Cup and Ladies’ Charity League campaigns will be kicking off in February with three Sandycove teams entered. These campaigns are always keenly contested and Sandycove hope to do well this year after coming close to glory in 2022!

Happy Tennis!
