Mallee boys meet hero Fitzy at tournament

17 Nov, 2009 04:00 AM
FOUR local junior tennis players travelled to Geelong to compete in the John Fitz­gerald Cup recently.

Zac Robinson (Mildura), Liam Davis (Ouyen), Sam Mead (Walpeup) and Nicholas Moore (Mildura) represented the Northern Mallee Region in this annual Tennis Victoria regional tournament for boys aged 13 and under.

Players across Victoria competed, with the Northern Mallee finishing a commendable eighth out of the 10 regions.

The format for the tournament involved the teams playing four rounds, with each round consisting of three singles and one doubles. The matches played were an eight-game pro set with a tie-break at 8-8.

The Mallee boys played very well, winning one round and losing three, although one of those was a narrow two-game loss.
