The Costa Blanca Tennis League was set up 3 years ago to give the opportunity for tennis players along the coast to play competitive club matches against other clubs within the local area.

The league runs through the winter from October through to the beginning of March and this last year consisted of 8 teams split into 2 groups of 4 teams. At group stages all teams played against each other both home and away.

After the completion of the group stages the top 2 teams from both groups were matched against each other at the semi final stages, the semi finals results were as follows:

Campoamor All Stars beat Los Amigos and Orihuela Costa beat Quesada.
Last Saturday saw the final of the Costa Blanca Tennis League which this year was held at the tennis courts at Campoamor Golf Course. On a windy, cold day it was still good to see that the finals were still well supported although with blankets and thick jackets.

After a great day tennis and 4 tough matches Campoamor All Stars just edged out last year winners Orihuela Costa 12-10 to win the 3rd Costa Blanca Cup.
I would like to say a big thank you to all that participated in this year league. It is the dedication of the people and players involved that makes the Costa Blanca Tennis League a success year in year out.

A Mixed Doubled League is being run through the spring so anyone interested in entering a team please go to the websit www.costablancatennis.net and go to the league link or email me for the attention of Colin Bevan.

Once again a big thank you to all involved and if anyone is interested in finding out anything about tennis from leagues to tennis classes or just social play please don’t hesitate to contact Gareth Pritchard on 634322659 or go to www.costablancatennis.net
