On Sunday June 21st SOSUNS hosted an extremely successful tennis competition attended by over 50 athletes and approximately 100 spectators. This fantastic event was run entirely by volunteers, from Peter, Sue, Dave and Deb who spent countless hours preparing for the day to our wonderful umpires, ball boys and girls and barbecue people.
