The tennis calendar for 2016 has now been updated and can be viewed the relevant start dates of each event under that “tab”.

Next year D&G Tennis are running a pilot mini red tour (8yrs and under), this will consist of 3 events held at Dumfries in January at the Loreburn Hall, Annan in February at the high school with the final one at the Beechgrove sports centre (tbc) in Moffat and this will be in March. These events are the starting point for kids playing tennis at the entry level with the hope that they will progress to junior players through time. These 3 clubs have been selected to run these events as they all still have active junior coaching programmes running throughout the winter.

If successful, we would be looking to expand this to a 5 or 6 event tour next winter, if other clubs are interested in joining the tour.

Orange and Green events are being looked at for a summer program so watch this space for more details.
