Bristol Real Tennis Club

What a great day of Real Tennis last weekend! BRTC v Old Cliftonians. It was very close indeed - but the OC’s won the day! Well played everyone. If you fancy a game - come & play on the coolest court in the West Country!

Congratulations Henry Liddington for winning the BRTC Barford Salver, the Club Championship for the second time..

Congratulations Hatfield - winners of the Division 7 National League! Fabulous Real Tennis . A great afternoon of tennis at the BRTC. Well played Nick & Martin from Hatfield & Bruce Newman & Theo Besnard from the BRTC for coming runners up.

Val Probyn Long Ladies Handicap Tournament at the BRTC! Lovely time was had by all, but huge congratulations to Jan Fuller for winning this fabulous trophy. Well done to all the ladies too for taking part & Janine Mendham for being a close runner up.

Aren’t these great! Thank you so much Jesmond Dene Real Tennis Club for creating these prototypes for us! We can’t wait to use our BRTC bespoke balls!

Calling all BRTC members, come and bring your friends to the Quiz Night on 7th May at 6:30pm at the Club. Further detail on the flyer. Those interested, please contact Ben or Zak.

Congratulations to BRTC member Dave Whitaker for winning The Kressmann Trophy Singles over in sunny Bordeaux on their Jeu du Paume court. Giles Watkins was also playing brilliantly until he got a bit too close to the wall. Get well soon Giles & keeping drinking the medicinal.

We love the slightly furrier winner too.

Thank you Bordeaux for such a fantastic time.

Well played to the BRTC Head Professional Zak Eadle in reaching the final of the Category A (0-9s) Tournament at the Prested Real Tennis Club. He lost to a worthy winner, Vaughan Hamilton.
