First team league winners

All the tennis teams have fared exceptionally well over the past two weeks. The 1st team beat both Linden Hoërskool and St Stithians to end unbeaten and to win the Premier League in a convincing fashion. The 2nd team is also unbeaten in their league pool and beat both Hoërskool Randburg and Assumption Convent in their pool games. The 3rd team continues to compete well against the 1st teams from opposing schools and congratulations to the 4th team which is still unbeaten in their pool.

Our school championships are almost completed, except for one event, and I thank all the players who made the effort and time to compete in these events. Our inter-house tennis event was great fun! Well done to Phelps for outplaying all the other houses.

I extend my thanks to Mrs Corbett, Mrs Lowndes and Ms Millard for all their help and assistance over the past season. Lastly, thank you to the captains, Tyrah Cook and Isha Madhu, for doing an amazing job and to all the tennis players on their phenomenal results.
