5th April 2008 - Division 4 Mens Only Premiers !!
Congratulations to our Division 4 Mens
Only team who won the 2007-08 Premiership today in emphatic style.
The grand final was originally scheduled
2 weeks earlier, but due to the unprecedented heat wave during
March, the match was postponed into April.
However after weeks of anticipation, the
boys played out a hard fought grand final to take the clubs only
premiership win for the year.
It was a nervous start to the grand
final however, with Michael Burton being 4-2 down and looking down
the barrel, before a great fight-back resulting in a 9-4 win.
Mark "Duffy" Duffield was pumped up for
the big event and absolutely thumped his opponent scoring a 9-0
result.
The biggest come-back of the day though,
was Andrew Burr who was 6-2 down and seemingly out of the match
until an epic fight back saw him take the match to a tiebreaker and
win 9-8.
However the team was not yet home after
Trevor Surman, who had not lost a match all year went down in a
cliffhanger 8-9.
It would come down to the doubles and
only one win was required. Burr and Surman took out the doubles in
straight sets giving Athelstone a 5-2 victory in the grand final.

2nd April 2007 - Division 2 Win in a
Thriller
This year saw Athelstone
take part in two grand finals with our Division 2 and Division 7
teams aiming at back to back premierships.
In a thriller the
Division 2 team won the grand final by 10 games after the matches
ended at 8 sets all.
The Division 7 team was
not so fortunate going down 10-3.
8th March 2007
- Athelstone Tennis Club Survey
As the 2006-07 Season
draws to a close, the Committee now reflects on the season that was.
Thoughts are discussed with regards to the results of teams, the
players we expect to keep and lose for next season, how can we
convince Troy into being Club Captain
again... etc.
Also of importance
though, is knowing what the players themselves think of the club.
Are they enjoying their tennis? Do they want to see more social
events and if so what kind? Are people willing to help out the
committee or do they just want to hit a ball and go home?
Athelstone in the last
few years has been spoilt with a good number of players, fantastic
results including back to back Premierships in Division 1 and well
organised and supported social events.
To maintain this, we are
asking you to help us understand what players think of the club.
Please take the time to download the following survey. You can fill
it out on your computer and email it to
enquiries@athelstonetc.com
or you can print it and post it back to the club.
Please take the small
amount of time to fill this survey in. It will be most appreciated
and will allow us to understand how we can make the club better for
you!
