Tennis

U19 boys and girls doubles tournament (Ellesmere College) 3pm

Although tennis is not yet one of the major summer sports at Oswestry School, we are trying to build this up with the help of Mike Markham, a professional tennis coach.

Unfortunately, due to cricket and swimming commitments, we were not able to put out a boys' team but 2 x couples of girls went to the tournament at Ellesmere College.

Brooke Simons-Akwah and Charlotte Dingwall-Fordyce played as first couple.  Charlotte's ground strokes were steady whilst Brooke's serve and volleying proved strong.
They won 1 set and lost 2.

Kristina Kingolts and Anya Shpilman played as second couple.  Although they lost 3 sets, they played their best with Kristina putting in some good serves.

Oswestry finished 3rd against some strong opposition.

Well done girls.
