THANKS TO EVERYONE who entered our social (and sociable) tournament on Sunday 18th, complete with a rolling handicap to ensure close games. It came with summery weather (and equally summery Pimms and strawberries). Hugely enjoyable. There’ll be another or similar soon. Do be sure to enter early, as places on Sunday filled fast.
HENMANS JUNIOR TOURNAMENT
A REMINDER that in the last week of May, in the half-term holiday, we’re hosting our annual Henmans Junior Tournament, now proudly in its 28th year. In 2025 it is generously sponsored once more by Blenheim Palace: the Club is very grateful for their continuing support.
THE COURTS WILL OF COURSE BE BUSY during the tournament days from Monday to Friday, 26-30 May, but will be free each day by late afternoon, so Club Nights that week (Tuesday and Thursday, 5.30) will run as usual.
