Tildesley Shield
SCEGGS competed in the Tildesley Shield last week that was held at Pennant Hills Tennis Centre. SCEGGS finished 17th overall out of 27 schools.
Highlights of the two days:
- Bridget Murray (Year 11) reached Round 4 and played a thrilling match that went into a tiebreak against a very strong opponent from PLC Armidale.
- Pippa Brenner (Year 11) and Olympia Batchelar (Year 10) were defeated by a tenacious pair from Tara in their closely fought Round 4 match.
Well done to our three Year 12 players who played in their final Tildesley Shield: Aurelia Cortese, Isabelle Dua and Mia Webster.
A special thank you to all of our Tennis Coaches who worked tirelessly behind the scenes for the past year to prepare the team, and our Tennis Co-ordinators – Miss Barr, Mrs Joukhadar and Miss Tucker.
