Club Successful in Grant Application

There was smiles all round at Nenagh LTC last weekend as the club learned that it had been successful in its application for Lotto Grant funding for planned improvements and development works at the club.

The club has been allocated €35,000 in grant aid towards the development of 2 new floodlit hardcourts, rejuvination (refurbishment) work on courts 5 and 6, resurfacing and part rewiring of the mini-tennis court and practice wall area.

The good news was confirmed to club officials and members at a reception at the club on Saturday evening attended by Michael Smith, TD, Minister for Defence, Maura Hoctor TD, and Tom Harrington MCC.
