FDC Championships of County Cork

Rushbrooke LT & CC are entering their crazy season again, with 4 big tournaments in 3 weeks.  The first of these finished last Saturday on a day of mixed weather.  Thanks to the co-operation of the players and the organistaional skills of Martin Cusack and his team the day finished on time.

Rushbrooke is one of the only events with singles for all grades and this adds to the popularity.

Over the next 2 weeks Rushbrooke will also host their Junior open which is then followed by 2 international events, an U-14 ETA event and an U-18 ITF event.  These two events will attract players from all over the world and promises to provide some very entertaining tennis.
