Recently the Suffolk Park Tennis Club got together for their Hawaiian-themed community day.
Organisers told The Echo, ‘There were games for kids, face-painting, some hula hoop competitions and of course some wooden racquet tennis!’
‘Club volunteers have rejuvenated the courts over the last two years, attracting over 100 members, a court resurface, new nets and new LED lights.
Next stage
‘The next stages of club development include a shaded and seating area as well as fencing upgraded when feasible.
‘There are a number of great coaching and social tennis services provided at the courts. Membership is $60, which gets you access to $5 an hour court hire.
‘Suffolk Park is a core participant in the new North East Tennis League which commences this month’.
