Junior Newsletter - November 2025

Dear Junior Member

With the nights drawing in and the days getting brisker, there's.only one sensible thing to do...play more tennis! Welcome to our seasonal updates in the world of OC Juniors...

Xmas Party
Get your snow boots on and dust off your rackets, the legendary OC Junior Xmas Party is set to return, with added sparkle, on Friday 12 December from 4-6pm . Expect tennis games galore, prizes, pizzas and seasonal OC pizzazz. Santa hats are encouraged but strictly optional. Save the date - more details to follow soon!

Box Leagues are back
Great to see some of you out on court already and congrats to Arihaan Anand on this Sunday's tightly fought victory over Greta Lewis in the tightest of tight champs tiebreak deciders! If you haven't yet got involved, then what are you waiting for? Get your match on before the closing deadline of Dec 7!

Surrey League hot shots
The OC Juniors are hitting their stride in the opening term of the Surrey League. Congrats to the U14s girls team of Omaira Anand and Koto O'Sullivan , who won their match against Sutton Tennis & Squash comprehensively with a 3-0 victory. Good to see the U12s boys team of Harry Au and Phoenix Bidder teaming up to tough it out away in Kingston on a very rainy night to win their doubles match 10-8 in the champs tiebreak decider. But special mention goes to the U9s who have convincingly won their first two matches, away at Roehampton and at home vs Wilton. Can they make it three out of three when they host Woodfield Grove this Sunday? Fingers crossed.

New coaches are on their way...

With Luke's departure and Hamid taking time out for his knee op, many of you have been asking who might be coming in to replace / cover them. Behind the scenes the club has been working super hard to secure the best talent around and we are very close to having some very exciting news on that front. Stay tuned to the next newsletter for more info!

All the best,

Alex and Sean
