WINTER LEAGUE
Winter league teams have now been selected by the Captains, together with their selection committees, and teams are being notified this week. League coaching has been arranged for the duration of the league campaign.
On the ladies side it was very encouraging to see such a large number sign up for teams and we would like to wish all MLTC teams a successful campaign.
Don’t forget to sign-up for the League Coaching.

UPDATE FROM HEAD COACH STEPHEN
Great to see many of our Juniors play in the National Indoor Championships.
Rosie Kennedy was just pipped in the Semi Final of the Girls' U/14 Singles by the No 2 seed.
Robyn Kennedy reached the Semi Final of the Girls' U/12...and like her sister, Rosie, put up a super challenge to the No 1 seed.
Great performances ...Well done!
Let's hope the weather improves a bit so we can get out on court and enjoy our tennis again!
