THERE was a double success for Rainford Tennis Club players at this week’s St Helens Tennis Tournament with Maisie Lavelle and Eve Twist both winning singles events.

Eleven year old Eve Twist was the champion in the 12 and Under Girls Singles winning all of her matches in straight sets on the way to the title, including a win in the final over Wigan’s Freya Peet.

The week ended with a victory for 15- year-old Maisie Lavelle in the 16 and Under Girls where she beat Twist in an all-Rainford final in two sets.

The LTA sanctioned tournament, which was in its eighth year, once again took place at Rainford Tennis Club and was organised by volunteers from the Club.

The event attracted entries from across the region and was kindly sponsored by North West Waste Consultants.
