Both Ryan Bainbridge and Tom Hollingworth, who were winner and runner up at the Road to Wimbledon county finals, travelled down to SW19 to compete with the country's best 14&Under year olds and had an experience never to be forgotten.
The second annual Durham & Cleveland LTA Awards Evening was held on Friday 23 September at Esporta Wearside.
Melissa Lowe was one of our county players who got the chance to play on the grass courts at SW19 after winning the County Road to Wimbledon event in the summer.
The chance to play in a National tennis tournament for an 8 and 9 year old is rare, but youngsters in Durham and Cleveland can enjoy the experience on Saturday 29th October at Sunderland Tennis Centre.
