End of Season Do

Posted on August 2, 2017 (Updated: August 10, 2017) By Gary

Hi Tennis players,

Make a date for your diary – Friday 8th September – when we can all get together and have a good night out! You’ll get to see what your team-mates look like when they’re fully clothed, hair brushed and wearing make-up – and that’s just the men!!
Bring your friends and family – it’s about socialising, after all.

Tickets cost £7.50 and include a DJ and fish’n’chip supper. You’ll also see who won those leagues you’ve struggled in this year- I always say it’s the taking part that matters (?).

Looking forward to seeing you at Leigh Cricket Tennis and Bowling Club.
Tickets are available behind the bar, or from me. Stop me and buy one!

Linda
