25.01.2022 Junior tennis will wake up with a jolt On Saturday as it felt a strange hand on its face. It will breathe a sigh of relief as it realizes that it slept on its own arm and cut off the blood supply and the hand is its own! It will be in for a bit of discomfort when it gets pins and needles as blood returns to its hand and arm. Please Junior tennis resist with all your might the urge to hit your numb hand against inanimate objects for fun whilst devoid of sensation. Here is Saturdays game schedule

24.01.2022 It is with great sadness, we announce the loss of our past player and life member, Andrew Pepper after a long illness. Andrew played both traditional and doubles with the Crafers Tennis Club. He made a valuable contribution to the club serving on the committee in the roles of President (1975 and 1976), Junior Secretary/Coordinator (1972 to 1975) and committee member (1983 to 1985). Andrew became a life member of the club in 1985. Our condolences go to his wife Trish and so...ns Matthew and Nathan and his brother Ken who is also a past player.

11.01.2022 Combined Court Report and Week 5 Schedule for Junior tennis. Amazing tennis by Girls 2, Girls 5, Boys 3, and Green Ball White- worthy winners Saturday 9th. Junior tennis will wake up with a jerk this Saturday having fallen asleep on a bus ride. Unfortunately they had an aisle seat, and as they dozed they leant over the aisle and almost rested their head on the strangers lap across the aisle. Good news they didnt rest their head on a strangers lap but bad news they did dribble a bit. Worse news is they had been chewing purple coloured gum not long before they got on the bus and the stranger was wearing light pants (now with purple dots). Here is the schedule

01.01.2022 Combined Court Report and Schedule for Saturday 23rd: Winners on the 16th were Girls 5, Green Ball Blue and White, Orange Ball Blue and Boys 2 and 3. Junior tennis will wake this Saturday with a start and look at its bed side clock. OMG the clock reads 7.50 and Junior tennis knows its game is at 8.30. Junior tennis will grab its Crafers tee shirt off the floor where it has laid from the Saturday before and a pair of stinky shorts and put them on before dashing downstairs yelling its late for tennis. It will not be amused when it sees its Mum laughing at it, and less amused when Mum explains that it is still Friday night. Silly junior tennis was up too late on Thursday night and fell asleep after arriving back from school.

01.01.2022 Penultimate round of junior tennis this Saturday before the crude violence of netball and football take over the sporting landscape. Enjoy the tennis whilst it lasts, here is the schedule
