Aston Park, the holders, have retained the Aylesbury and District Intermediate Cup 2021 with a 5-3 sets win over Great Missenden on Monday 13 September at Halton. This comes after strong wins over Chesham 1879 (8-0 sets) and then Chesham Bois (7-1 sets).

On the way to the final, Nathan Glynn, Sue Hoey, Andrew Nurse and Pamela Reid were in the winning teams. However, Andrew Nurse sustained an injury just before the final and Elliott Abdey was asked to join the team for the final, pairing up with Pamela Reid for the first time.

Great Missenden proved to be very tough opposition on the Astroturf at Halton but both Nathan Glynn/ Sue Hoey and Elliott Abdey/Pamela Reid won 2.5 sets each and this resulted in an excellent 5-3 sets win overall.

As a small village club these wins against large clubs Chesham 1879, Chesham Bois and Great Missenden are very satisfying.

Well done Aston Park Intermediate Cup Team - the club is very proud of your achievements.

Mixed 2 ended the season as Division 6 Champions having remained unbeaten throughout the season: played 7, won 6, drawn 1, lost 0. A great result and a big thank you to Pete, Mark, Jack, Adrian, Anne, Anna, Kerry and Sarah who all played a part in our success.

Enjoyable tennis and a great group of people - well done everyone! Looking forward to the winter league now and then moving up into Division 5 next summer.

Aston Park’s Bucks Medley Team has finished mid-table in Division 3 after 3 wins and 3 loses which is an excellent achievement given the strength of the teams in the Buckinghamshire League.  Captains, Nathan and Pamela, have utilised a large squad of individuals allowing many to play these matches which include mixed doubles as well as ladies and men’s doubles. 

Fortunately after three seasons of travelling to Burnham and facing an exceptionally talented young team, Burnham will be promoted to Division 2 and we are unlikely to have play them again as they will surely reach Division 1 and stay there.

The Medley has been a popular format as it is very different from the Aylesbury and District League matches and there is talk of entering a second team for Summer 2022.
