Shore Parents’ Tennis Day

The Shore Parents’ Tennis Day held at the Tennis Pavilion at the War Memorial Playing Fields, Northbridge, on Friday 10 March 2023, was a huge success, the event was a sellout with 90 tennis players enjoying a sun-drenched Autumn day. 

The event objective was to engage the extended Shore Community by providing an inclusive, fun, well run, social tennis day that encourages parents to meet and interact within their year group and across the wider school community while increasing the awareness of Tennis as a sport for life.

Players were able to enjoy Round Robin games and Tennis Active/Cardio with coaches to keep everyone moving.

Coffee and other hot drinks were supplied by 3 Wise Beans Coffee Cart and the catering was supplied by Barbettes Feast. There was a delicious spread of refreshments providing a lovely morning tea that included fresh fruit, scones with jam and cream and a variety of ribbon sandwiches. 

The gourmet item donations by the players made up eight sensational Raffle Prize Hampers, so there were some very lucky individuals who went home happy to have won them.

A huge thanks to SPA and the Shore Event co-ordinators for all the help in making the day a success.
