Grove Life Winter 2020

A Round of Events Richard Centerbar, Director of Tennis C an you believe that 2020 is here! We’re off to a great start this season with our South Palm Beach Ladies Tennis League. These teams are captained by Debbie Lewis (Division 2A) and Diane Resnick (Divi- sion 4). I am so appreciative of all their hard work. Our ladies have a long competitive season with over 15 local clubs from September through early May. What a great opportunity to showcase our club and all it’s amenities as our ladies compete on the courts and enjoy lunch at the clubhouse. Save the date for Ladies Members/Guest Day which is Saturday, March 28 and thank you Cheryl Budd for spear-heading this event.

In January, we will be hosting an evening Mixed Doubles event with Bocaire Country Club. Also put on your competitive shoes on and prepare to play in our Singles, Mixed and Doubles Club Championship happening January through March. We will be using the new USTA approved format of fast 4. This format moves the tennis quicker, which allows us to finish in one day. We have been challenged by Gleneagles Country Club to see who has what it takes to bring home the first annual Pickleball Cup. This event will kick-off at the end of January. Also be on the lookout for our once a month pickleball clinic held on Sundays.
