Seaton Tennis Club held a mixed doubles Whistlestop Tournament as a friendly warm up for impending league matches.

Winners played with losers and losers played with winners - timed ten minute tie breaks starting and finishing with a blast of the whistle, with a different partner every time.

Great fun was had by 30 club members with no second serves and no let serves adding an extra dimension.

The men's winner was club coach Kevin Davis with an impressive average score of 18.25 points while Teresa Hancock and Donna Moss tied equal first for the Ladies with an average of 15.25.

Seaton Tennis Club welcomes new members of all abilities including beginner, both junior and adult. Search Seaton Tennis Club for more information.
