Ladies Tennis
Please note: At recent McGonagle Cup '09 we raised 150 for St Vincent De Paul. Thanks to all players for their generosity.
On Wed 2 Dec 09 43 ladies competed for the McGonagle Cup. This cup was
donated to the MLTCC club in 1977 by Pat McGonagle, Pat being a former
Captain and elite player in MLTCC. We had 2 hrs of competitive tennis for
all grades leading to 8 top ladies going into a semi final.
The semi finalists were: Katarina Ryan/Catriona Cahir vs Bernie
Fitzsimmons/Paula McNamara and Sharon Pepper/Clair Whyms vs Susan
Donnelly/Claire Dunne. We saw some very good tennis resulting in Sharon
Pepper/Clair Whyms vs Katarina Ryan/Catriona Cahir in the final. Great win
for Sharon Pepper and Clair Whyms who won out and captured the McGonagle
Cup in very competitive games.
Well done to all the players and finalists. There were prizes for the
winners, runner-ups and beaten semi finalists. We presented Pat McGonagle
with a nice bunch of flowers and she was delighted with the reception that
she received from all the players
