JULIA GETS (ENGLAND) SHIRTY

It was celebration time for ABTC member Julia Ronson as the draw was made for the club’s Crowdfunder raffle prize of a signed and framed England football team shirt.

Former ABTC chairman Terry Cooper pulled Julia’s name out of the ‘hat’ (in fact a football trophy), following which she was presented with the framed shirt by Bagot Arms landlord Dave Cowell on the pub’s packed and sunlit garden.

Pictured here with Julia are Terry and, in the other pic, Dave - to whom many thanks, along with wife Lisa and the Bagot staff, from ABTC for not only publicising and selling raffle tickets but also for providing the pre-draw barbecue which was also in aid of the club’s Crowdfunder.

A thank you also to the many people who bought tickets, whose sales added £1,000 to the Crowdfunder - the proceeds of which will enable the tennis club to undertake major resurfacing works on the courts plus install new fencing and an electronic gate system that will provide a pay-as-you play facility for the village community.

The prize draw event was followed by a viewing of England’s excellent victory over Croatia on the Bagot’s’s giant TV screen - a great night all-round!

ABTC CELEBRATES BIG BIRTHDAYS

The Bagot was buzzing as ABTC members Judy Smith the Younger and Tony Leighton the Older shared their respective Big Birthday celebrations with club colleagues.

Brilliantly organised by Julia Ronson and Wendy Stringer, amazingly caked by the former and cunningly snapped by the latter (note the ticking clock in the main picture….), the event was a fun evening enjoyed by a good number of our village tennis club members.

MIXED DOUBLES DOUBLE

Richard Blundell and Julia Rushworth completed an ABTC tournaments double as they won the annual mixed doubles event on a sunny September afternoon at the village courts.

Three months after winning the club's 2025 Strictly come Wimbledon tournament, Richard and Julia triumphed again despite some strong opposition on the four-team finals day.

Pictured here is each of the teams with, of course, the winners taking centre stage to smilingly celebrate their success.
