TENNIS Geelong\u2019s Annual General Meeting took place at Deakin Cats Community Centre on Wednesday, September 5, highlighted by the merger of the Bellarine Peninsula Tennis Association with Tennis Geelong.<\/p>\n
Not only but also, a new life member of the association, Geelong Lawn\u2019s Greg Leslie, suitably surprised and delighted at his induction.<\/p>\n
This follows Greg\u2019s life membership award at Geelong Lawn 18 months back – a great night for one of local tennis\u2019 most passionate servants!<\/p>\n
The winter and summer club of the year awards were made by Tennis Geelong president Donna Schoenmaekers and it was a clean sweep by the all-conquering Wandana Heights, a club which has certainly hit the heights, perhaps due to a fantastic junior program and some dedicated people at the helm.<\/p>\n
Donna was elected association president for the third time, with Trevor Colbert and Wayne McKinlay remaining secretary and treasurer, respectively.<\/p>\n
Tennis Victoria\u2019s Pete McDonald took the floor to explain future initiatives and took questions from a robust audience of around 50 club representatives.<\/p>\n
Discussions included the upcoming association night tennis competition, working with children issues and more – and posing the question \u201cwhat will the tennis scene be in 2025?\u201d.<\/p>\n
Hopefully very healthy. On that note, Donna closed the meeting at 8.30pm, wishing all clubs a successful and enjoyable season of tennis!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
