Increased participation from road tennis players from the island’s 11 parishes has set the stage for one of the most exciting and competitive Inter-Parish Road Tennis Championships.
Tournament organizer Philip “Foff” Garner strongly believes that St Michael will have to be at their best if they are to recapture the “A”, “B” and veterans titles which they won the last time.
With the semi-finals slated for Friday and Saturday at Vauxhall and the Barbados Defence Force respectively, Garner has lauded the islandwide participation as the main reason for the high level of competitiveness.
“Although we still don’t have all the parishes fielding full teams in all of the divisions, what we have seen is an increased number of participants from parishes which are not usually known for playing road tennis.
