On Sunday, the Greater Amherstburg Tennis League (GATL) wrapped up its 3rd Annual Doubles Invitational. Over a two-week period, 26 teams competed for the Championship in both Men’s and Women’s divisions. Sunday saw some great action and tightly contested matches. A small gathering of spectators and league players were on hand to witness the contests.
In the Women’s division, LaSalle’s Angela Knapp repeated as champion, this time teaming up with Penny Peltier of Kingsville.
The league continues to grow each year, with over 200 members playing throughout Essex County. The 2021 season runs from June 1st to August 29th, with playoffs beginning in September. There are divisions for Men’s Singles and Doubles, Women’s Singles and Doubles, and Mixed Doubles.
The GATL would like to thank its sponsors for this event which included Miskus Chiropractic, Radovich Chiropractic, and Pizza Express in Harrow.
