COSTA BLANCA TENNIS CUP JANUARY 2010
Contributor / 2010-02-05 12:38:50
Montepiedra Sports Centre, as usual was the host of the 1st Costa Blanca Cup held this year in 2010. Held on the last Friday of every month, the Costa Blanca Cup is a fun tournament played by both tennis and padel tennis players. After an unusual start to the year weather wise, come tournament day we were lucky and it was back to the beautiful sunshine we have all come to love here on the Costa.
The tournament consisted of 2 events tennis, and padel tennis. Padel tennis is a sport best described as in between both tennis and squash, it is played on a smaller tennis court with a glass perimeter but still following the scoring of tennis.
Both events consisted of 5 rounds of matches. The pairings were picked at random after each round and all scores were taken after each round was completed. The winners were the top scoring players from both sports who accumulated the most points over the morning. So I would like to say a big congratulations to our 1st winners of 2010, Daniel………… who won the tennis event and Paul………..who walked away with the padel trophy.
The tournament was a great success with lots of great tennis and padel being played and plenty of fun and laughter. After the tournament everyone who played in the tournament along with friends and family all headed down to the Greenwich Grill in Torre de la Horadada where the owners Sharon and Brian laid on a fantastic meal and entertainment for all.
I would like to thank the Montepiedra Sports Centre for the use of their courts but an even bigger thank you to everyone that took part in the Costa Blanca Cup and making a special day and a great start to tennis on the coast for the, new year.
