2010 Berri Teams
Berri Report
23rd Riverland Tennis Seniors Teams Carnival
This year 92 teams made up of about 490 players competed in the 23rd Seniors South Australia Teams Carnival. Although it looked like rain at times the weather was kind to us again this year and all matches were able to be played as scheduled. There were a lot of close matches and good tennis. Thanks to Marie Stevens, Ken Smith, John Butterworth and Mark Swanbury for their contributions to the ranking of the teams.
Special thanks to Peter Tanner who did all the computer entries including the programme and John Wildy and John Rowe who helped Peter on the tournament desk over the weekend. Last but not least thanks to the members of the Riverland Seniors committee for their support.
Next year’s dates are Saturday 14th, Sunday 15th and Monday 16th MayResults of the 21st veteran’s Teams Carnival
