An easy win over Stonyhurst on Wednesday. With 1st seeds Nicole Jeffries & Holly Hesford winning 6-3, 6-2, 6-2.

Junior Tennis v Stonyhurst Won 13-3
A resounding win against our local rivals with only Stonyhurst No 1 pair giving us any problems, some closer games down the pairings but convincing displays by Amy Lewin and Annabel Tyser, Ruby Page and Rosie Herman, Lucy Preston and Sarah Long, Georgia Turner and Grace Sykes and Hannah Gale and Becky Hadfield winning both their matches.  We are still finding our seedings but the girls are producing some exciting tennis at the start of this season.

Jnr B Rounders v Stonyhurst  Lost 9-14 ½
An indoor game due to weather.  Some confident batting seeing Stonyhurst edge ahead in the second innings, Sedbergh with work to do in the field with basic errors creeping in.  Good to play the fixture though and game experience gained for our Junior B side.
