Connaught Champions - Division 2

The Connaught League Finals took place in the Galway Lawn Tennis Club on Sunday 25th April, Boyle had two teams representing Roscommon in Division 2 and in Division 6.

The Division 6 team had first to meet Loughrea however play just didn't go in Boyle's favour on the day and they were eliminated at the semi-final stage. Congratulations to the whole team on getting through to represent in Connaught, putting in huge effort all year and emerging with a second County Title under their belt - not a bad season's work!

The Division 2 team played against Cortoon from Galway in what was a rerun of the Galway League Final. Coming in to the mixed doubles Boyle had taken two games, men's singles and men's doubles and with first mixed not going in Boyle's favour they had it all to do when taking to the court for the last two games. They were outstanding, a lesson in how to play mixed. Boyle took both games in two sets. As always Cortoon were worthy competitors but in the end Boyle took a fantastic 4-3 win to emerge Connaught Champions. They go forward to represent Connaught in the BI All Ireland League Finals, Division 2, in Baldoyle, Dublin on 16th May.

Congratulations to Padraic, Sean, John, Marcin, Ruth, Bernie & Mandy.
