Congested fixtures threatens Tennis

The Tennis event of the on going national sports festival is battling to keep up with the pace of the rest of the sports in terms of meeting the deadline for the rounding off of all events.

This is not unconnected with the high number of entries for the competition which saw the male event having a draw of 64 and the female event having a draw of 32.

The event coordinator Leticia Enyiongai revealed also that the fact that they had to stop play mid-way on Saturday to allow the players attend the opening ceremony of the festival contributed to their having a congested fixture now

She however promised to ensure that the event is completed as scheduled even if it means the players having to play as many as three matches each day.

At present the male draw is in the fourth round while the female draw is yet to complete the second round matches.
