Groups 3.0, 3.5 and 4.0 Fun Tournament – Saturday, March 14 CANCELLED
In view of the ever evolving COVID situation the Executive has decided the prudent thing to do is cancel the March 14th Fun Tournament. The courts are still open for All Play but there will not be an organized tournament. It is disappointing to have to take this action but let’s all look forward to lots of Pickling over the summer then bringing our passion for the game back to Silveridge next season.
