BCTA's 2013 Outdoor Tennis Season Ends on a High Note!

Just under 30 players from throughout Lower, Central and Upper Bucks County,  aged 7 through 13, gathered at the Core Creek Park tennis center for fun and friendly team competition, competing against their peers throughout Bucks County.

 

“It’s great to see the players demonstrate their tennis skills,” said BCTA President Barbara Long.  “There were some great rallies and some very close matches.”
