Lt Preet Chandi2015 Army 'Indoor' Championships Report
The annual Army 'Indoor' Tennis Championships took place at the Aldershot Tennis Centre from 04 to 06 Feb 15. This year saw the biggest entry yet with a total of 55 players taking part. Players qualified through group matches before entering the knockout quarter final stages. The standard of tennis was very high with most of the Men’s 'A' and 'B' Squad players in attendance. There were several previously unseen players and a healthy representation from the Army Reserve (a reservist featured in both the Mens and Ladies finals). The eventual winners were Lt Ben Rogers RA who defeated Rfn Steve Barnett (RIFLES) and Lt Preet Chandi AMS
who beat Cpl Hannah Bacon (AGC(SPS). The 2015 results and scores are as follows:
- Mens Final: Lt Ben Rogers RA beat Rfn Steve Barnett (RIFLES): 6 - 2 & 6 - 4
- Ladies Final: Lt Preet Chandi AMS beat Cpl Hannah Bacon (AGC(SPS)): 6 - 0 & 6 - 0
- Best Newcomer: Rfn Steve Barnett (RIFLES)
