Kinsale Tennis Club
We’re very fortunate to have the generous support of Kinsale Tennis Club, who not only provided their excellent courts for our home matches but also sponsored new tennis balls for all fixtures. The club has a long and proud tradition of supporting Kinsale Community School teams.
A special thanks to Catherine Wilson, Aine Farley and Paul Brugger , powerhouse mum and dads, working behind the scenes - organising fixtures, supporting training sessions, and driving the teams across Munster. We’re hugely grateful for all their hard work.
A great showing from all three teams — well done, KCS!
