    Market Bosworth Juniors on the Leader Board Again!

    As well as Team Winners we also had some individual winners at the Leicestershire Junior Awards.

    Natalie Milner won the U14 Girls Grade 4 LTA Leader Board.

    Tom Hall won the U12 Boys LTA Grade 4 Leader Board.

    To win these they won the most points in grade 4 tournaments in Leicestershire over the summer season.

    Well done!


    Congratulations to our Juniors

    Our Junior Teams performed very well in the Summer Aegon Team Tennis Leagues.

    Girls U14 won Division 2

    Natalie Milner, Elena De Fraja, Rachel Scott, Jenny Tasker, Alex Milner and Mollie Taylor.

    The Boys U12B team won their division

    Boys U12A team finished second to Ashby (despite beating Ashby head to head ), they had won more games overall! I think we had the moral victory.

    Well done to everyone who took part and thank you to all the team managers.

    Mixed Winter U15 League Team

    Also won their division, well done to Natalie Milner, Elena De Fraja, Rachel Scott, Tom Parodi, Matthew Evans and Nick Evans.

    Well done to everyone who took part and thank you to all the team managers.

    Tennis Clubmark

    In January 2009 Market Bosworth Tennis Club was awarded Tennis Clubmark.

    Achieving Tennis Clubmark means the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA) endorses and supports the tennis programmes our club delivers on court, and the policies and procedures we have in place off court. These are crucial to ensuring that the club is managed effectively and that we provide a safe environment for junior members to enjoy and play tennis.

    Tennis Clubmark provides a framework to help clubs improve themselves, and to ensure that our programmes, policies and procedures are all in line with best practice.

    Achieving Tennis Clubmark is an important step for the future development of the club as it opens up opportunities for the funding of new initiatives.
