A new look Committee for the Tennis Club

The club held its Annual General Meeting at the School on Wednesday 23 October 2002.

The Committee is: President-Colin Simms, Secretary-Tony Noble ('59), Treasurer, Ken Marshall ('77), Vice President-Peter Permezel ('60), Vice President-Robert Millis ('58), the club also elected 5 committee members to assist the above.

The Club intends to intensify its quest for new younger members and will work closely with OSCA, the school and the new OSCAnet system to achieve this. The club also conducted a further mail out to 1971 to 1980 school leavers inviting inquiries for membership to the club.

The club entered 5 teams in the Past student Tennis Association Winter Competition and although both our Doubles Only teams qualified for the semi-finals, neither team made it through to the Grand Final.

Earlier in the year the club supported the PSTA John Hill Tournament (sponsored by Bib Stillwell BMW), held at the school.

Malcolm McCandish and Allan Lewis from the club won B Grade Doubles.

The club has entered 2 teams in the combined churches competition (sponsored by the PSTA) and at the halfway mark the teams are finding the standard very good, hence a winning second half of the season is required to make the finals.

Social doubles tennis is conducted every Saturday on the courts by the Cardinal Club, if you are interested please come along and have a game.
