The Tennis Geelong triples season wrapped four of its five sections last week, with all four teams winning their first triples grand finals in their section.
In Section 1, the Drysdale NSA won the grudge match after splitting two regular season matches against the Wallabies.
Wallabies number one Brad Pearson suffered an injury the week prior to the grand final, and was unavailable.
Fill-in Daniel Smith combined with Matt Lyon and Will Tohill to make a valiant effort, but fell just short, 3-3 30-25.
The NSA used a strategic line-up shift with Nathan Jorgenson playing number three, which paid off when he won all three sets on the night, taking his singles 6-3, doubles with Andrew Vlahovic 6-2, and doubles with Simon Brown 6-2.
Section 2’s Leopold was even on the ladder with All Saints Anglican, but put in a strong showing on grand final night to win 4-2 27-18.
Leopold’s number one Matt Young turned in a dominant performance, only losing three games in three sets.
Young upped his lifetime singles record in triples competition to 26-0.
Leopold played four players in the final, with Sally Hughes, Emma Kleindienst, and Anna Kleindienst all contributing to the win.
CocoBewares won its first triples premiership, taking the Section 4 win 4-2 31-17 over Table 29 Tennis Association.
CocoBewares’ doubles prowess propelled it to the win, dropping just three games in three doubles sets.
Brad Walker wrapped up an undefeated singles season by only losing two games total on the night, including 6-0 doubles sets with Tony Bongiorno and Daniel Fraser.
Walker was thrilled at the win, signing off the season as “CocoBewares make history”.
Natural Guts had the most dominant performance in a grand final, winning 5-1 30-13 over the Kangaroos in Section 5.
Hayden Morrow and Aaron Cashion won all three of their sets handily, where Javid Forssman dropped his singles to the Kangaroos’ Guillermo Andy.
