A SALISBURY school claimed victory at the Lawn Tennis Association South West regional championships in Bath on Thursday (March 13).

South Wilts Grammar School senior girls were announced as winners in the girls’ division.

This followed a closely contested first-round match against Clifton College that resulted in a nail-biting tiebreak shootout, setting them up for an exciting final against Dean Close.

A school spokesperson said: “These talented tennis players had to dig deep and produce some of their best tennis in order to take the wins against worthy opponents.

“Huge congratulations to Evie, Maria, Sophie, Jiselle and Cameryn on this incredible achievement.”

Miss Weir, joint head of PE, said: “It is down to our students’ commitment, effort and determination as well as all the hard work from Victoria Park Community Tennis, Downton Tennis Club, Riverside Tennis Club, Salisbury Lawn Tennis Club and Andover Lawn Tennis Club.

“It was a wonderful experience for the girls, and it will give them memories that will last a lifetime.”
