    Shirley Park LTC News Letter – Spring 2012

    Shirley Park LTC News Letter – Spring 2012 Club Championships – Summer 2011 Mens Singles Final - Harry Ware beat Dan Hatton 6-1 7-6 It seemed that Harry Ware was in a hurry when he raced through the opening set of the Mens Singles Final against two-time former champion Dan Hatton taking it 6-1 in just 22 minutes. However, the second set proved a much closer affair. Dan struck early on by taking the first two games of a see-saw set that contained some high quality tennis and exciting rallies. Harry then broke service twice to take a 3-2 lead, but Dan returned the compliment and had a chance to take the set when serving at 5-3. Two double faults gave Harry the chance to level and, after sharing service holds, he eased through the tie-break to successfully defend his title in straight sets. Ladies Singles Final - Natalie Davis beat Kamila Morgan 6-2 6-3 This was a tight affair. Kamila came out hitting some crunching forehands but Natalie wisely kept most of her shots to Kamila's backhand in an attempt to neutralise her opponent's game. It became clear early on that Natalie’s strategy was to simply out rally her opponent with her consistency. Natalie showing great resilience broke Kamila in the fourth & sixth games to win the first set 6-2. The second set produced some stunning tennis with Kamlia using her forehand topspin to good effect. Kamila moved into a 3-1 lead and at this stage it looked we could be heading to a third set.

    PRIVILEGE IN TENNIS AND LAWN TENNIS: THE GEELONG AND ROYAL SOUTH YARRA EXAMPLES BUT NOT FORGETTING THE STORY OF THE FARMER’S WRIST GRAEME KINROSS SMITH DEAKIN UNIVERSITY I It is the season. That strange game called lawn tennis in- filtrated the Australian colonies in the mid 1870s when the wealthy, in emulation of English cousins,rigged nets in their city gardens or in the grounds of their country estates and invited long skirted ladies and men in cummerbunds, white shirts, and formal ties to tennis parties. The flight of the balls over nets five feet or more from the ground was demure and accompanied by giggles, gasps and gentlemanly shouts. By the 188Os, those whose enjoyment of these physical dashes required for its satisfaction something more codified in the way of a game were beginning to establish clubs for players of like mind. Their endeavours were guided by the All England Croquet Club at Wimbledon which had incorporated the words Lawn Tennis in-its title, in 1877,and which staged its first Gentlemen's Singles Championship under rules which modified those of the modern game's inventor,Major Wingfield,and allowed for a net still five feet high at the posts,a rectangular court rather than Wingfield's hour glass, and the modern system of scoring. That all occurred about a century ago. So it is the season- for celebrating the birth of the game, for taking stock, for writing the centenary histories of Australia's earliest tennis clubs. In 1878, the Melbourne Cricket Club added an asphalt court and a tennis club as an adjunct to cricket,and laid a grass court in 1880.
