Our Ladies 2nd Team went down to the wire in their Class 3 Summer League Final against Swords 1st on Saturday, 25th June in their attempt to bring the cup home, but sadly it wasn’t to be!
With the matches poised at 2-all, the last match on court went to a nail-biting tie-break in the 3rd set. Unfortunately, for Castleknock we lost the tie-break and the final. By such tight margins are winners and runners-up defined.
It is a great achievement to get to a final. In this case it took 8 matches to reach it. So, the team are winners in the club’s eyes and have brought another pennant back to be hung with pride.
The team on the day was:
Singles:
Audrey Duffy
Elizabeth Hunt (Capt)
Sorcha Raoof
Doubles:
Susie Kelly & Mary Mulherin
Deirdre Bennett & Lana Rosenberha
And a special thanks to the 3 Subs - Ciara Quinn, Deirdre Gogan and Claudie Fitzgerald who helped the team on the road to the final.
Also, a most sincere thanks to the supporters the team had from the quarterfinals in Templeogue, to the semis at home, and to the finals in Clontarf, Thanks so much, it means a lot!
Deirdre Bennett
Ladies Captain
