On Saturday, in round 2 the BRTA team had a solid win against Wimmera in Round 2 and North Eastern in Round 3 (36 games-11). Round 4 was a bye and on Sunday morning the team took on Barwon defeating them 30-13 games.
The Grand Final was against NSJTA.

In the doubles: Pauline/Jenson 2-6, Angie/Lachlan 6-2
In the singles: Lachlan won 6-2, Jenson lost 2-6, Pauline won 6-0 and Angie won 6-2
It was an amazing win for the team – they stayed close, supported each other and watched all matches.
A special mention for Lachlan King who dropped only 2 games in the entire tournament in singles.
Thank you to Vince and Grove for pulling together a great team and to make this possible and continuing to ensure that BRTA is well-positioned for future growth
