RLTSC Hosts LTA Tournament 180808 - 230808
THE ALAN HAWKSHAW MUSIC SCHOLARSHIP FOUNDATION
RADLETT JUNIOR AND MENS OPEN TENNIS TOURNAMENT
MONDAY 18 TO SATURDAY 23 AUGUST

Do you know about the prestigious LTA Official Junior Open Tournament that RLTSC has been holding for a number of years?  Are you aware that the Radlett Tournament is rated as one of the best in the country? 

If you are like me then probably not. Well, this was the case until recently when I was roped in to help organise it. I was amazed at the talent of the youngsters that entered. We have Grand Prix status across all age groups. Grand Prix status means that children can improve their LTA ranking by playing at these events.  We therefore expect to attract some of the best juniors in the country.

This year we are also repeating the success of previous years when we simultaneously held a men’s open tournament with the matches being played in the evening. The winner this year will receive £400 in prize money which will make our tournament very attractive to the best players. Both Tournaments are sponsored by The Alan Hawkshaw Music Scholarship Foundation and we thank Alan once again for his very generous support.

Unfortunately during the Tournament members play will be restricted but we do hope you will take the opportunity to support the Club and watch great tennis. The bar will be open from 18:00 each evening and refreshments are available throughout the day.

We look forward to seeing you. Jeanette Taylor, Tournament Organiser.

Ben Davis played for Herts Senior County Team

On Sunday 10th June 2007, club junior Ben Davis, who has just turned 15, played for Hertfordshire Men v Cambridge University 1st team at Fenners on the University's grass courts. Ben won a tough singles match 7-6 7-6 against a much stronger and more experienced Cambridge Captain. The fixture was drawn 6 matches each.
Ben recently returned from a 2 week clay court trip representing Great Britain at European Tennis Association tournaments in Slovenia, accompanied by the LTA's head of 16U boys Leon Smith. Leon coached Andy Murray from the age of 12 to 17 and Ben hopes that with Leon's help he can follow in Andy's footsteps.

Regards, Stephen

Club Players

Junior tennis members, Ben Davis and Sam Humphrey, represented Hertfordshire as half of the boys’ team in the Hildon 16 Counties Championship Under 16 event held in Corby. Both players won all three of their matches which ensured Hertfordshire gained promotion to Division 1 for 2007.

Ben was also selected by the LTA to represent Great Britain v Sweden in an under 16 match in Stockholm. Ben’s latest win was at the Sunday Telegraph Junior Masters in La Manga, He beat Chris Simpson in the U14 final 6-2, 6-2. A highlights programme of this event is due to be screened by Sky Sports in December ( see the club website for details www.rltsc.co.uk).
Congratulations to both boys. The club is extremely proud.
