Junior aces shine

By DES ADSETT

THE Noosa District Tennis Association (NDTA) Australian Open Junior Tournament was held at the Coolum Tennis Club recently.
There was an impressive turn out, with 44 participants.
Of the Coolum players, Emma Willis was runner-up in Orange Division, Beau McWaters won Green Division, Mitch Willis was runner-up in C Grade and Kristy Drain won B Grade. Congratulations to all players.
Fixture teams are being formulated for winter fixture season, so if any players are keen let Andrew Ash know as soon as possible by phoning 0421 391 505.
In other news, Coolum Travellers have had a great season to date being second on the top three teams with only one point difference. On Friday, they played the third team and were defeated by 46-30. The team would like to also congratulate the new Nambour team. They are improving with every match and are a great asset to the competition.
Social tennis has proved popular in the last couple of weeks with good attendance.
