Mens Teams:

to recover from a loss of 16 points (wrong night not played) and still stay in the division, to quote Brendan Rogers "outstanding"

Came within one point of promotion, finished third. really good result.
Mens C Division 4
TOP OF THE DIVISION (UNBEATEN) really well done guy's
Mens D Division 4
Stay in the division, which is really good for the club (next year a mens team in the top 4 divisions!)
Mens E Division 6
Stay in the division, "if Carlsburg had a team it would be this one!" great match reports!

Ladies Teams
Ladies A Division 1
Next year will be in division 2, perhaps getting towards the correct level (no offence intended!)
Ladies B Division 3
Next year will be in Division 4. time to gain experience and improve.
Ladies C Division 5
Next year the only way is up!

Mixed Teams
Mixed A Division 1
Will be playing in division 2 next year
Mixed B Division 3 WON the League will be joining the A team in division 2
Mixed C
Withdrawn from the league!

This is I believe a fair review of Chippenham Tennis's year in the League.
