Pretty in pink, serving up support

More than 40 women took to the courts on Wednesday 21 October at Ngataringa Tennis Club, Devonport, for their annual Breast Cancer Awareness Week fundraiser, a much-loved tradition that has been running for over ten years. Organised by the club’s Wednesday midweek social tennis group and supported by the generosity of many local businesses, players enjoyed a fun round-robin tournament, delicious food and treats, purchased donated items, and bid on the silent auction, with many contributions donated by the principal sponsor, Yarntons. Also supported by Belmont and Lake Pupuke Tennis Clubs, the event raises around $3,000 each year for the Breast Cancer Foundation.
