It was a huge weekend for the Berwick District Tennis Association (BDTA) with regular season matches being played and five teams representing the BDTA in the Association Junior League (AJL).

Unfortunately, many courts were affected by rain just prior to start time on Sunday seeing some BDTA regular-season games washed out.

In the AJL, the BDTA is represented by three boy’s teams – Under 12, 14 and 16 – while under 14 and 16 girls are also waving the BDTA flag high.

All BDTA teams were competitive with the best result coming from the Under-16 Boys who had a thrilling victory over Tennis Geelong.

Both teams won three matches and five sets, but the BDTA won 47 games to 36 to claim victory.

Here are this week’s results from the BDTA and AJL over the weekend:
