TENNIS NEWS
We had 2 weeks of tennis camp in July.
We’ve seen some noteworthy success recently from Pebble Creek players:
♦ Maria Hesketh won the girls' 18 division of the South Carolina State Open played here at Pebble Creek. Maria, the number one ranked girl in the State of South Carolina, cruised through the tournament without dropping a set. Hesketh will attend Coastal Carolina University in the Fall on a full tennis scholarship
♦ Grace Kirven won the girls' 12 and under division at the Belton Rising Stars Tournament in April. Grace won all three of her matches while only dropping 1 game along the way.
The Ladies 3.5 team (Captain Susan Tankersly) as well as the Ladies 2.5 team (Captain Lee Young) have had a great spring season and are enjoying playing on the new clay courts!
Please remember to call ahead for your court reservations. We will have your court groomed and ready for play. With the dry, hot weather upon us we will need to know when you are coming so we can adjust the watering schedule.
Thank you for letting us serve you!
