:: Elmwood Tennis Club hosted Kurashiki Japan Tennis Visit

On Tuesday 11 November, Elmwood Tennis Club kindly opened its door to twelve visitors from Kurashiki, Japan to enjoy an afternoon of tennis followed by a social hour.

With such a hot and sunny afternoon conditions certainly made for an enjoyable afternoon of tennis and after-match socialising with the visitors.

Elmwood Tennis Club members and the Japan visitors played four half-hour rounds of doubles, where the first three were against each other and the final round Elmwood Tennis Club and Japan played together.

The afternoon was a great success and enjoyed by all.
