A GREAT number of youngsters, ranging in age from eight-years-old to 17, contested the annual Bude RSTennis Championships last week.

It was the first competition held by RSTennis at Budehaven's indoor tennis centre, and was a great success.

It was a closed event for players who regularly take part in the coaching programme and competitions.
