Seaton ladies’ B tennis team completed a successful summer season in the Exeter and District League to win promotion, writes Jo Little.

The ladies’ team’s future hinged on their final match of the season, with a 5-5 draw against Exeter’s Victoria Park enough to secure promotion to Division Two.

The squad comprised of team captain Jo Little, Teresa Hancock, Carol Hurst, Jo Head, Kathy Wilkinson, Jen Rose, Susan Green, Liz Lynsey and Carolyn Pinnock.

The team ended the season as the second team in Division Three, topped only by a very strong Newton Abbott, the only team to beat the Seaton ladies at home in the campaign.

Their promotion continues the summer successes of Seaton Tennis Club, who fielded three mixed, three ladies’ and two men’s teams in the league.

Seaton Tennis Club always welcomes new members, adult and junior, of all standards. Contact the membership secretary at seatontennis@gmail.com for further details.
