Lady Caimans !
All good things come to an end & comes a new beginnings. Our final score for CIF Quarter Final vs. Eastlake HS 4-14 ELHS. A competitive match and everyone did their very best and contributed in their own fantastic ways. An incredible 19 victory matches won in a row was quite the fete! This is a new Caiman Tennis record for our books which also earned us a League Champ title and banner to be hung in Caiman Hall.
With the updated CIF rankings, we competed in Division 2. A huge jump from last year! You ladies bonded so well physically, mentally and emotionally. Thank you for a great & fulfilling season of Fitness, Fun, Friendship & Future! We truly enjoyed getting to know each & everyone of you on & off the courts.
Though the season has come to an end, certainly does not mean you stop playing tennis. Get out there (2-3x/week) and keep sharpening those techniques and strategies. Join clinics/private lessons and/or do UTR or USTA Jr. Touneys so that you’ll stay fit, sharp and improving. Next season will be here before you kow it.
Finally, our last but not least "Player & Amazing Captain" of week the goes to: Sachi Darrock!!!!
Congratulations Sachi & a huge THANK YOU for an incredible 2022 League Champ SEASON. You were the quiet warrior leading this team by using all your senses. Observing, listening, & being compassionate. You knew exactly how to handle every situation that arises. You encouraged them, pushed them, organized them and most of all, loved and served them! You are the whole package and we are so proud of how you spearheaded many request with a smile, especially during the “Fundraiser, Team bonding & Parent/Teacher Match Up”. Every thing that was asked of you was always “No problem Coach, Thanks Coach” or “Sure Coach”. You are a true definition of a Leader.
All the best on Tuesday at CIF Individuals. You’re backhand and forehand has improved dramatically this season and we can’t wait to see what next season will bring! You will be UNSTOPPABLE!!!! Keep your CHOMPERS sharp and hope to see you on the courts during off season;)
