Munster Junior Finals Day.


I have to say I was to delighted to be able to attend the finals day,in Rushbrooke on Saturday, of Munster's finest juniors. There were 3 age categories, ranging from u-12 to u-16 and then 3 plate events for the same ages.
The matches started at 10am and ran right through the day, with some very close and competitive matches.
To give credit where it's due I watched an u-12 mixed doubles match between Emily Daly and Ben Rasmussen of Rushbrooke and Kathy O Neill and Sean O Callaghan of Sundays Well and honestly I haven't seen a better game of doubles anywhere this year and that includes senior tournaments also.
Not only was the tennis of the highest standard but the manner in which not just this game was played is a credit to all who took part. These u-12 children applauded each others good shots and played with a smile on their faces that was lovely to see.
I look forward to watching their progress in the years ahead!
Congratulations to the organisers and all who took part on the day.
