The 3rd Annual Doubles Tennis Event Was A Great Success!
WinS hosted their third Doubles Tennis Event, serving up the competition with a 16-team draw on Sunday, October 16th, 2011 at the Glenmore Country Club! Balls, a Gift Bag, prizes for the top teams, snacks and drinks were provided. It was a beautiful day for the event, with 32 women participating in the compass draw tournament. This format provides everyone to play against people they may not have played against before and at varying levels of competition.
Of the 32 competitors, for 21 of the ladies this was their first time in participating in the WinS Tennis Tournament.
We achieved our top priority which was raising awareness of WinS through Fun and Fellowship for all in attendance.
