Presidents Report - Year End 2011

Well, we’ve come to the end of another great season, and what a great summer season it was.  Let’s quickly review the highlights........

It started off with the ladies doubles and men’s doubles tournaments.   The ladies champions were myself and Sarah Brown and the men’s doubles champion were Paul Beukeboom and Devlin Fisher.   

Next came the mixed doubles tournament with Dale Rees-McGrath and Lexi Brand declared as the winners.  For the singles tournament, we have Lori Goodfellow as the ladies champion and Mike White as the men’s champion.  For the mixed 40 and over tournament, we had the defending champions Alison Draxl and Bruce Smith claiming the title once again.

On the Junior side of things, we had a very successful year with our boys major, boys A and mixed majors competing in the intercounty championship finals at the Rexall Centre and winning their respective championships.

Let’s not forget the house league playoffs.  Team 5, EAGLE EYES, led by Captain Laura Henaghan became the 2011 Champions after an incredibly close finish against Team 2, DEE GEES, captained by David Guidolin.  Three of the six matches went to 3rd set tiebreaks and the outcome wasn't decided until the final match tiebreak.

I would now like offer a few words of congratulations.  Congratulations to Brian Draxl for winning the Men’s Over 45 national singles title and to Shane Hickson for winning his Class A Provincial Championship.  Congratulations to Liam Draxl for winning the 10 and under boys singles  provincial tournament and  to Val Swail for receiving the  NCTC Lifetime Member Award for his 20 years of dedication to our club.

Lastly, our club was awarded the “Outstanding Club Achievement Award” by the OTA as a result of all the programs our club runs.  This distinction could not have been achieved without all the hard work of our pros, team captains, staff, members and board of directors.  Thank you all for making our club so outstanding. 

I wish you all a safe winter and look forward to seeing you in the spring.
