Blessed with ideal weather, the event was played across all five courts and was marked by both friendly rivalry and strong family support.

Each team competed in four 8-game sets, with players switching ends after every four games. Winners were determined based on the total number of games won, with a maximum possible score of 32 games.

Top performers on the day were:

  • Women’s Division: Dani Shenfield (22 games) and Steph Fry (20 games)
  • Men’s Division: David Sousa and Dean Craig, who tied for first place with 27 games each

The tournament saw excellent support from family groups, including three generations of the Craig family , highlighting the strong community spirit that defines Lorne Country Club.

After tennis, everybody participated in lunch of chicken sandwiches and fruit supplied by Suzanne Diviny and Jillian Chapman.
