Junior Tennis Update

Well done to Nathan Slattery representing Nenagh LTC in the Mullingar Junior Open. Nathan won through to the Final of the Under 12 Boys Singles unfortunately losing out 6.3 7.5 in the final to Reem Gafurov from Bishopstown – nice to see Munster Junior Tennis represented so strongly in the finals. Well done again Nathan on such a strong performance and all the hard work and hours put in to practice.

Dolores Cahalan and Joe Doran Cup Results

David Goulding/Sharon Young Win Dolores Cahalan Cup

David Goulding and Sharon Young are the 2016 winners the Dolores Cahalan Cup (Pictured above).  David and Sharon defeated Tom Hough and Ann-Marie Darcy in the final.

It was an especially pleasing win for David as he was a personal friend of the late Dolores who died in 2007 and at the presentation he recalled that he was part of a social tennis group including Dolores, Ber Daly and Liam Cleary who played regularly on selected nights each week, as well as also playing in various competitions with her. Sharon Young was equally delighted and was in fact winning the title for the 2nd time, having won in 2013with Silvermines man John Sheehy.

The winners were presented with the cup by Eileen Molloy, sister of Dolores.  At the presentation, which also included presentation to the Joe Doran Cup winners, David Goulding, speaking on behalf of the players, thanked everyone associated with the efficient organising of both events and making them an enjoyable occasion for all.

Raimonds Zarinsh and Tanya Beattie Win Joe Doran Cup

Raimonds Zarinsh and Tanya Beattie defeated Pat O’Shaughnessy and Geraldine Hilmi in the 2016 final of the Joe Doran Cup competition at Nenagh LTC last weekend.  The event was  played in tandem with the Dolores Cahalan Cup event. A great achievement for Raimonds finally capturing a title after so many Semi-Finals and to Tanya making her return to competitive tennis at the club!

At the joint presentation, Nenagh LTC President Margaret Folan paid tribute to the late Joe Doran, noting that remarkably this was the 31st running of the event.  Margaret welcomed Michael Doran, son of Joe, to the club to make the presentation. Both cup events attracted excellent numbers of entrants and were played over 4 relatively cool April evenings which however offered perfect playing conditions.
