We took a good first stride towards making it three in a row in this local tournament with an impressive 8/1 win over friendly foes Norbury Park on Saturday April 16, with several players making their Millennium Cup debut. The score is deceptive: Matt and Gemma had to focus after easy first sets to close out their matches, Sergino had a tight U16 battle, Dan and Richard narrowly lost 5/7 in the third and the mixed was an entertaining three-setter with Chris and Louise edging Maxine and Norbury captain Nigel, fuelled on Pride and shod with Murray’s shoes(!) . Monica, Angela, Rob, Rachel and Nicola had solid wins to secure valuable points in this round-robin stage. Telford beat Woodfield 8/1 in the other match. Good weather, good tennis, good vibes, good day so many thanks to all who played and supported; next up is Wigmore May 7 (H)
