Senior Club Championships

Quite a few championship matches were played last week with good wins for Sean Raftery, Jeremy Clarke, Pawel Michalski and David Manser in the Men’s Singles and for Julie Costello, Orla Gavin, Jacinta Digby and Laura Hunt in the Ladies’ Singles. The doubles partnerships of Tim Clarke/Peter Agbanobi and Orla Gavin/Richard Frank were also successful in men’s and mixed respectively.
