There has been an excellent standard of tennis on show all week as East Glos hosted one of only four grade 2 junior tournaments over the summer for ages U12 to U18.  

With 256 players from across the country taking part, this has delivered some excellent tennis and showcased East Glos to the broader tennis community.  

Sarah Horrocks, a club member and partner at event sponsor RockWealth, said, “We are delighted to be sponsoring a National Tour tennis event. The chance to watch some of the best young tennis players here on our doorstep has been something we have very much enjoyed watching and supporting. 

“There hasn’t been much live sport for any of us to watch over the last year, so seeing these talented young tennis players has been fantastic.”
