CTC U14 PRAGUE

The I.CLTK in Prague hosted the CTC junior competition under-14 from 17-19 October. A total of six teams took part, including the host club who was joined by squads from Dublin, London, Barcelona and Stockholm.

The six teams were divided into two round-robin groups, with Cumberland LTC (GBR), RCT Barcelona (ESP) and Kungliga LTK (SWE) in the first group, and I. CLTK (CZK), Carrickmines (IRL) and RC Polo (ESP) in the second group.

The winners from last year, Cumberland LTC were narrowly defeated by I.Cesky Lawn Tenis Club Praha in the tightest ever final. Both teams finished 3-3 all in matches and at the end only one set gave the Czechs victory in the tournament.

The visiting teams stayed during the tournament at Belvedere hotel near Stvanice island where I. Cesky Lawn Tenis Club is located and they enjoyed lunch and dinner at club restaurant. Official dinner with short speeches from all captains was hosted by Mr. Petr Simunek, board member of I.CLTK, on the Saturday night.
