Fixture at Prested Hall, Colchester, UK 24th November 2012

There are two courts at Prested, so we fitted plenty of tennis into a single day, with everyone playing at least an hour of singles and an hour of doubles, all to handicap. One of the courts has a glass grille wall, through which, from a comfortable seating area, the spectator has an excellent if unfamiliar view of the game. In the final reckoning, the Prested Hall team emerged with more wins than the IRTA — but since some of those representing Prested Hall were also IRTA members, perhaps the honours were even!

Many thanks to Richard Ramjane for setting up the fixture and encouraging the IRTA to visit the stripy courts of Essex, and to Ricardo at Prested Hall for organising an excellent day of tennis.

We hope to visit again soon!
