Melton's young players were in great form.

It’s been another busy time at Melton Mowbray Tennis Club.

The club’s juniors were into their second week’s matches with the U8s paired against Stoney Stanton who were a player short, the Melton youngsters taking full advantage by notching a 13-3 win.

Jake Billing and Vinnie Watson led the way with four wins each, Toby Wildt added three and Cooper Fryday two to clinch an highly encouraging result.

The 10 & Under team travelled to Birstall B in their Div 3A match and were 3-0 winners.
