| The weather was just fantastic for us Eskimos...ummm...Ontarians... at the old Royal City Tennis Club!
|  |
 | LaVerne Hinan (along with his daughter, and Shelby, and Barry) did their usual bang-up job through great organization, flexibility, and thoughtfulness to the players Good job guys! |
| We held a different kind of contest throughout the day this time......called Win, Place, or Show Players picked a team at random and had to guess where they would end up in what draw! Wildly popular with lots of negotiating going on! Big winners this time included Sue Hatton (twice!) and Lorraine Harbin, as well as Bryan Li and Jim Kopperson Pictured here are some wanna-be's holding the Head swag! |  |
| Another new feature of some very select Tour Stops is the traveling "Head" road show featuring James Rollinson and Brian Mills Lotsa fun, guys! |  |
 | All the participants in the drills and target practice has to use Head racquets, too! |
| Some very anxious and confused drill participants finally got the hang of it! |  |
 | Never a dull moment these days on the old Tour as the MacDonalds and Tuitt discuss their fate in the Mixed |
| Quiz time was frantic as players felt it was necessary to cheat by way of the internet! |  |
 | Despite a competitive field of serious players, there was always some time for a couple of big smiles! |
| Great lunch as usual. So satisfied was Tony that he had not set hi plate down before passing out! |  |
 | Two very happy campers after just having experienced their first tour victory.....and over the HEAD reps.... no less! Lesson #1... Quit while your ahead!! (kidding!) |
| Ok, hold on....who's playing who here? |  |
| All Right....Now the moment you've all been waiting for! Saturday saw dozens of great mixed teams take to the courts, and Sunday saw quite the collection of Men's and Women's teams | |
 | In the Mixed "B" final, Lee Hatton and Marcia Barnes (left)defeated team MacDonald (Linda & Ken) in a close one - 8-6! |
| The "A" Mixed title was taken home by Sandra Barrett and Matt Brown (left), who overcame a tough challenge (8-5) from Shelby Evans and Robin Walker |  |
 | On Sunday, The Men's "B" final was caprtured by a couple of cards...Jeff Guse and Farouk Ruda (left) defeated Clinton Collier and Phil Grubb. Mary is just fillin' in here and dreamin'! |
| The Men's "A" final was captured by Tour veterans Scott Barrett and Chris Edwards (left) (8-6) over first time team Matt Brown and Derek Prada |  |
