Coaches Corner
As we head into the winter months the damp weather means our artificial grass courts get faster. This means rallies get shorter than the summer months when it’s dryer. This increases the importance of having an affective serve and return. Practice plans for your serve and return. For example on your serve, can you slice your serve out wide on the deuce side and then play your next shot into the open space. On the return, when the courts get faster it makes sense to aim more for the middle of the court as deep as you can to reduce your errors.
Junior League - Success for U18 Girls
Congratulations to our U18 Girls team who have reached the play-off stage of DLTC Junior League. They play Celbridge 1 on 6 November in Sutton.
