WESTON Tennis Club was delighted to hold a Mercedes-Benz of Weston junior tournament.

The event was attended by junior members and well supported by their families. The standard of play was impressive and matched by the excellent spirit in which the matches were played.

The Under-18s tournament followed with some high calibre tennis. The winner was Lewis Taylor and the runner-up Daniel Gadsby.

Club chairman, Bob Wilson, told the Mercury: “We are grateful to Mercedes-Benz of WsM for their generous funding of our junior section. Their support for junior tennis development in Weston has enabled us to provide subsidised individual coaching for a number of our juniors and expand our development programme.”

Trophies were presented by Caroline Yard of Mercedes-Benz, who said: “It has been a wonderful day representing Mercedes-Benz at Weston Tennis Club’s junior event. Mercedes-Benz is delighted to be associated with the club’s junior development programme and today shows the results of our continued support.”
