And if you’re disappointed that the Griffith summer tennis season is finished, we have great news - Winter Wednesday social tennis comp will kick off this week, Wednesday 24th May 2017 and run through until 23rd August 2017 (with a break for school holidays). The format is pay-as-you-play, so there are no set teams locked in to play each week. Just come on down to the courts on Wednesdays at 6pm for a social match when you are available and the weather behaves. Winter Wednesdays will be ideal to keep up skills and fitness in the off-season or a fantastic opportunity for new or interested players to get into the swing of weekday tennis ready for the Spring Comp commencing in late August.
