Esporta in Wimbledon final

1:47pm Tuesday 27th November 2007


Members of Croydon's Esporta Tennis Club will look to defend their Prince Inter-Club Challenge championship on Sunday on the hallowed turf of Wimbledon's All England Lawn Tennis Club.

The national team tennis event is approaching its climax after six months and Esporta, on Hannibal Way, Croydon, will be hoping to win the title for the fifth time when they take on Edinburgh's David Lloyd Tennis Club.

John Feaver, former Davis Cup player and founder of the event says, "We are very privileged to be able to play the Prince Inter-Club Challenge finals at Wimbledon this year and it is a great way to celebrate the 25th year of the event."
