The annual Dicker Cup was held in Kimba on Friday, November 28, after school in very windy conditions.

Young local tennis players competed in boys and girls divisions in the 11&Under and 14&Under age sections.

Leonie Allan (nee Dicker) originally started this junior tennis tournament when she was teaching in the district in 1964.

The Kimba Junior Tennis Association committee were pleased that Leonie was able to make the trip back this year and be on hand to provide tips to players and present the winners with their trophies.

Winners were: 11&Under Girls - Danni Goodman. Runner-up - Ciara Williams

11&Under Boys - Harrison Lienert. Runner-up - Mathew Ramsey. Plate – Jed Beinke

14&Under Girls - Chelsea Lienert. Runner-up Mikaela Eatts. Plate - M’Lis Beinke

14&Under Boys – James Cant. Runner-up – Jordan Kenny. Plate – Ryan Andrew
