The Spike: or, Victoria University College Review October 1911

Tennis

page 74

Tennis.

There is every reason to believe that the season just opening will be a very successful one. Already Saturday afternoon sees a large number on the court, and when the examinations are past still greater numbers will probably avail themselves of the opportunity to play. Intending members, however, need not let this deter them from joining, as it is seldom that one has to wait long for a game. For the benefit of those who know little about the game, the committee of the Club has constituted itself a coaching committee, and a request has only to be made to a member of the committee, and his or her services will be available for coaching. Several of last years' Easter representatives have left us, and it is hoped that sufficient new talent will develop this season to represent us worthily at Dunedin next year. The Tennis Club is the only one which sends women representatives to the Tournament, and we hope to see, this year, a large increase in the number of women joining the Club.

The following Club matches have been completed since the last issue of the Spike:—Ladies' Championship, Mrs. A. H. Bogle; Men's Championship, Mr. J. B. Porker; Handicap Combineds, Miss G. Saxon and Mr. E. Wright; Men's Handicap Singles, Mr. E. Loughnan.
