MYALL Park Tennis Club has seen its sports offerings and success grow over the past few years, with players recently winning medals at the World Pickleball Association tournament in Lake Macquarie.
The WPA event ran from Friday 13 to Sunday 15 February at Mount Hutton Tennis and Pickleball Club, bringing together over 100 players from clubs around the region.
They included Helen Haynes and Samantha Leggatt from Myall Park who took home silver medals.
“This is a clear indication of the club going from strength to strength,” Club President Libby McDermott told News Of The Area.
Located at Myall Park sports area, the club has been bolstered by its inclusion of the ever-popular pickleball as well as regular tournaments with clubs from nearby towns.
“At recent open days, it was wonderful to be able to show our community just how much fun tennis and pickleball are, resulting in new members joining the club community.”
After a successful All-Ages Welcome Open Day in February, more are planned for May and August.
Existing tennis club players are currently preparing for the A- and B-graded tennis competitions.
