56th DEUCE: July 2020
President’s Message:
No one will disagree that 2020 has been an extraordinary year. COVID-19 has disrupted our lives in
many ways, yet the tennis club has managed to remain open and offer invaluable exercise and social
interaction opportunities throughout the health crisis – whether it’s just keeping in touch through a
WhatsApp Group, or using the club’s On Line Booking System to organise a hit on the hard courts. I
thank our committee members, volunteers, members, and Tennis Factory coaches for being so
responsive to accommodate changes at the club. We will continue to observe all government advice
and directions whilst keeping the club available for our members, and I look forward to the Awards
presentations and Wind Up Dinner as welcome celebrations for the club community to gather again.
And finally, a big thank you to Tony from the City of Subiaco Grounds Department for looking after our
grass courts and keeping them going to allow completion of the competition matches!
James Edwards, President

Messages from your Captains:
Social (Vlado Raich, Captain)
Club 2019/2020 tournaments and championships have almost (95%) completed, the last final match
Men’s Single Vlado vs Rob is scheduled on Saturday 11th July, weather permitting. Thanks to all
players, we have had good numbers considering the situation and delay.
Adult Pennants (Ian Singleton, Captain)
Brendan Jones has managed a clean sweep of the Open Club Championships that we have completed,
winning the men’s doubles with Mark Mccallum and mixed doubles with Charley Baxter. The first
point that follows from that is that we did not play the ladies singles or doubles. In the men’s singles
Brendan made his way to the finals through Ian and Jaimes whilst Rhett, as always reaching top form
at the end of the grass season, defeated Dean and then our number two seed Iain in the semi-final.
That was back in March and then we had a long COVID enforced break before the final at the
beginning of June. On a soft court favouring Rhett, Brendan held his nerve as Rhett threatened a
come back winning 6-2, 6-3 and serving at an amazing 85% of first serves in. In the Men’s doubles
Rhett and Iain twice came back from loosing positions to make it through to the final and almost
managed again narrowly loosing to defending champions Brendan and Mark 10-12 in a match tie
break.

56th DEUCE 6|9 Juniors News: OPTC Junior Club Champs |Sponsored by Miss Chow's It was so nice for the juniors to play some competitive tennis again when in June we were able to play the junior club champs which were originally due to be played in March. The event was hosted over 3 Sundays in order to manage numbers for social distancing, and we were lucky enough to have some great weather including a great day for the finals day. Participant numbers were great with 46 players taking part in the event. The event was played in good spirits and we know the kids really loved getting out and competing again. Here are the results from the event: 10/U Orange Ball Mixed Singles - Charles Newman 10/U Orange Ball Mixed Doubles - Patrick Duarte & Toma Lassmann 11/U Green Ball Girls Singles - Julia Pedrini 11/U Green Ball Girls Doubles - Sofia Bonev & Julia Pedrini 11/U Green Ball Boys Singles - Matthew Winn 11/U Green Ball Boys Doubles - Connor Icaza & Quenton Mok 12/U Boys Singles - Daniel Winn 12/U Boys Doubles - Daniel & Matthew Winn 16/U Boys Singles - Liam Dufty 16/U Boys Doubles - Liam Dufty & Alastair Phillips Charles Newman Parent and Child Mixed Doubles - Rachel West & Liam Dufty ONSLOW PARK TENNIS CLUB – Club of the Year 2015 Contact: info@onslowparktennisclub.com 85 Onslow Road, SHENTON PARK 6008

Tennis Factory Coaching News:
Covid to June
April to June coaching has been crazy but we are so thankful to have been able to get out and coach
again considering the impact covid has had on so many lives and businesses. In total we were
shutdown for 6 days and then we were able to begin to conduct individual private lessons again,
which we did for around 5-6 weeks. From about mid-May we have been able to start coaching small
groups and now for the past 3 or 4 weeks it seems more and more like we are back to normal again.
Although we are down on numbers compared to usual, we are all (the staff and I) so grateful for the
support members have given us in getting us back on our feet again. Thank you!
