David ‘thrashes’ the rest in tennis season finale

Dalkeith Tennis Club marked the end of its season with a men’s handicap event which attracted a great turn-out.
The winner was David Dowell, runner-up in the 2011 men’s singles championship, who beat Ricky Smith in the final.
In the semi-finals David overcame Johnny Costello while Ricky defeated last year’s handicap winner, Frank Nisbet.
The event, known at the club as ‘The Thrash,’ was superbly organised by Ricky and Stuart Campbell who laid on food and refreshments.
