TENNIS

WHILE there were no real surprises in the outcomes from Thursday night's Grand Finals, some exciting tennis was reflected in the closeness of the results.

Occasional showers did nothing to deter the competitors from completing their matches in good spirits, with Carapook taking the A Grade premiership after sitting in top position for most of the season and Nareen B Grade champions with a win in the final set.
