The 2021 Junior Club Championships were successfully held over the Waitangi Day weekend of 5, 6 and 7 February. Other than some light rain spotting on Friday evening, the weather remained fine and relatively calm and allowed all events to be completed by 1500 hours on Sunday afternoon with the rain day of Monday not being required. Mark Storey, as in the last two previous years, very ably ran the tournament using Tournament Planner. There were 26 participants from our junior members, most of whom competed in more than one event, and a total of 47 matches were played over the three days.
The standards of tennis and sportmanship were high and it was pleasing to see many parents supporting their children during their matches.
