The weekend featured over 80 players competing across 12 events including open, junior and senior categories.
In the Men’s Resident’s Doubles Tom Laudenbach and Sean Thomas defeated Tim Harris and Neville Rodwell.
Jason Duff took out the A Grade Men’s singles, while Sue Willis (35 & 50+) and Tony Winston (50+) also claimed singles victories in their respective divisions.
In the junior events, Chevonne Van Rensburg (14/u & 16/u) Kiran Myutel-Mansur (14/u), Alisha Kumar (10/u & 12/u), and Alejandro Fisher (10/u) won singles titles in their age group.
Tournament director Jake Lalliard was pleased with how the weekend went.
“The ACT Residents Championships has a proud history in the ACT.
“It was a great weekend of tennis and it’s always a fun way to bring the Canberra tennis community together”.
