The over 30s is ridiculous.

Yeah, Peter's a great guy. I think Arlene is there but Foam is at home planning his 2015 assault. No other forum members immediately come to mind.

Roadrunner from Qld, who came here because I was here but hasn't posted for quite a while.

A large number of TTNSW umpires, while the Bennelong Cup is on. or is that ?.

If they ask TTA very nicely, however logistics may defeat that.

haggisv asked:

Are you asking about the Vets or Bennelong?
Vets would probably be using celluloid. The entry form should state that.
Bennelong Cup will find out around 6pm tonight hopefully

I don't think Foam played enough tournament to qualify this year.

They used Adidas balls. Plastic balls will most likely be implemented next year.

I was in the Over 40 Women State Team, we got Bronze. I was the 4th player, so I did not get to play many matches. Did a lot of umpiring and cheering from the bench. Also got time to see a bit of Tasmania. Beautiful State, I can live here

Some very good "new" veteran players from South Australia such as Paul Langley, Scott Houston, Kazue Brice, Claire Langley. New Zealand has a very strong O40 Women Team with the addition of Joanne Shaw, who we heard was a former Commonwealth player! The "Golden Girl" this year was Lan Zhai from Victoria, winning O40 & O50 Women's Singles, leading the O50 Women Team to Gold and winning the O40 Mixed Doubles with Chamara Fernando.

Overall Victoria had a medal in 11 / 13 team matches. Winning 6 gold, 3 silver and 2 bronze. Only the Over 30 & Over 50 Men did not get a medal, but they placed 4th, so still a close contest.

Next year it will be in Caloundra, Qld. Looking forward to it already.

I didn't play any tournament this year, only played one last year?.

Might be able to play quite a few next year but another baby might complicate things :p. It's extremely hard to get into a team for me living so far away from tournaments, it means playing them on 4 hours sleep. I've played two or three vets tournaments without having slept at all. Tough!. But I'll give it a shot.
