French Tennis Tournament 2009
Briançon, Serre Chevalier
Pure Alpine Holidays organised and partially sponsored a trip to France
during October half term for juniors from Pavilion & Avenue Tennis Club
in Hove to compete in a French Tennis Tournament. The tournament took place
26 to 30 October in Briançon, Serre Chevalier.
This was great opportunity for players to experience competing against players abroad (and practice their French!)
