Ian Smith and Peter Riding celebrate at Castle Hill Tennis Club (Image: Pete Smith)
Castle Hill Tennis Club held its veterans doubles tournament on Sunday.
The event was well supported by members playing in a round-robin doubles format in very hot temperatures and blazing sunshine.
After it all boiled down to two semi-final ties, with Ian Smith and Peter Riding winning their match and Jane Carol and Alan Wells coming out on top in theirs.
The final was reduced to a single set due to the heat, with Smith and Riding eventually claiming the silverware after many long rallies and deuces.
