After a delayed start, some serious court mopping (thank you Jae Harrup) and a little luck with the sun and wind that came to dry the courts, we were lucky to enjoy a great afternoon of tennis at the Fernie Junior Tournament, organized by Fernie Sports Co. The players made all of us so proud. Wonderful attitudes, great spirit on court and some fantastic tennis were all on display. Here are the results;
