The Picture-Perfect tennis league finals took place last Saturday at Suiderhof Primary School.

Parents were on their feet as the top three teams from each category, selected after a series of league matches, battled it out for the gold prizes.

Tournament organizer Joyce Zussino expressed her satisfaction with the strong turnout, particularly from the parents who came to support their children.

"It was great to see so many parents showing up. We all know how important a parent’s role is in their child’s life," she said.

Looking ahead, Zussino mentioned plans to expand the league by inviting more schools from different regions to participate.

Furthermore, she said she sees the tournament as a valuable platform for younger players to gain exposure and encouraged high schools to incorporate tennis more actively into their sports programs.
