Wenvoe Tennis Group

WENVOE TENNIS GROUP

The newly formed Wenvoe Tennis Group is now up and running and welcomes new players to join us for regular weekly social tennis. We currently meet on Monday evenings at 6.00pm and our aim is to get as many as possible playing and enjoying Tennis in a welcoming, inclusive social group where a chat and friendship are just as important as any playing ability. We’ll often call into the Wenvoe Arms for a glass of something refreshing after each session although this isn’t compulsory.

 

If you’re new to Tennis or would like to pick it up again after a break, why not come and join us to see if it’s for you? We’ll gladly lend you a racket if you need one and will be happy to pass on some tips to get you playing and enjoying this life-long sport. It’s over 18’s only as space is limited but hopefully, we can include juniors as the group develops. If you’d like to give it a go, look out for our posts in the village Facebook page for session timings as these will change with the seasons. All you have to do is turn up around the published time. Contact Pete on 07891 828019 if there’s anything you’d like to discuss. We hope to see you on court soon.

 

Wenvoe Village Show

WENVOE VILLAGE SHOW AT THE CHURCH HALL
SATURDAY 6th SEPTEMBER

This is Wenvoe’s own local show and offers an excellent opportunity for some friendly, fun competition. Will your fruit and veg be the talk of the village? Is your baking a triumph? You don’t have to be an expert, you just need to enter. The show is limited to entries from people who live in the Wenvoe community (Wenvoe, Twyn-yr-Odyn, St Lythans and Dyffryn) and children who are residents of Wenvoe or attend the village school.
Entries to be registered at St Mary’s Church Hall between 8.30 and 11 am on Saturday morning (for those who have other commitments on Saturday morning there will be a limited time slot to register entries between 6 – 7.30pm on Friday evening 5th September but this will NOT include culinary entries). The hall will then be closed between 11 am and 1.30 pm. for the judging to take place. The public will be welcome to come and view the exhibits between 1.30pm and 4pm. From 3pm – 4pm there will be a chance to sample the culinary entries for yourself. There will be a good quality raffle, and this will be drawn at 3.30pm. If you have a prize that you could give we should be very grateful.
If you wish to reclaim your entries they should be collected between 4 and 4.30pm but please note that items entered in the culinary categories will be offered for public tasting and will not be eligible for collection unless there is any left at 4pm. Entry fee – £1 for the first entry and 50p for all subsequent entries per person. You may enter as many sections as you wish but the maximum number of entries per person in any one section of a category is two. Items entered in previous Wenvoe Village Shows are acceptable but only if they have previously failed to win a prize. If you would like to help on the day or have any queries, please speak to Mike or Glenys Tucker.
Weather permitting there will be refreshments available outside all day.
