NOBU and Yukiko have taken out this year’s Patron’s Day at Coolum Tennis club at the weekend.
Patron’s Day had fewer teams than in the past, but the lack of numbers was made up by the enthusiasm and enjoyment of the players.
Twenty players played five rounds of 25 minutes to accumulate points.
Nobu and Yukiko were each presented with a trophy and their names will go on the perpetual trophy.
Brian won the raffle and even though he was the lowest point scorer, he played great rallies and supported his partners.
With perfect weather, Patron’s Day was very successful.
As well as the tennis, Steve Robinson attended for an official opening of the meeting room.
The coach and treasurer were not available for the tennis, but attended the opening.
The club would like to thank Steve Robinson for his support on behalf of Sunshine Coast Council and particularly patron Laurie Bruhl for providing the trophies, raffle prize and food for the day.
The sandpit, finished last week, has proven a big success.
The families are prepared and bring toys suitable to use. It is lovely to have such a family atmosphere.
