May play - Another record!

It was a long cold spring but the Beast from the East has finally been sent packing and lumbered back to Siberia or wherever it came from. The snow is a distant memory as the sun has come out and Local Tennis League players celebrated by playing a record number of tennis matches in May.

A total of 3222 matches were played in our leagues nationwide, the highest ever figure for May!
