Sara’s Grand Slam Celebration!

To celebrate her 50th birthday in style, Sara Chiappara chose to hold a fun tennis tournament at Ravenscourt Park in Hammersmith and donated to three wonderful local organisations, including West London Action for Children.

Forty adults and twenty juniors played to a group of almost fifty spectators. Each pair of players took part in three timed matches, in a round robin format.

Mahmuda Jafarey from On the Ball Tennis was the tournament referee, and she’s “passionate about sharing her tennis knowledge to anyone who wants to learn to play!”

Fabulous retro trophies were awarded to the lucky winners, and snacks - both savoury and sweet - and refreshments were served throughout the day.

From everyone at WLAC, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to Sara, for raising £1,300 for WLAC. We are truly grateful for your support, and hope you had a smashing birthday!

Now, we wonder what she’ll do next year…
