Tuesday 14th April saw another unbelievable night for the club, when our 3rd Division team were crowned County League Champions.
In speaking to some veteran players throughout the county, this win seems to be the first time the club has won the league at this high level. A great achievement !
Hillview Sports Club of Clonmel, were the opponents and the 2 previous games during the league stages had resulted in a 1-1 draw.
This was sure to be a close one and so it turned out to be.
Hillview had taken the opening Ladies and Mens Doubles to storm into a 2-0 lead. Templemore then won both the Ladies and Mens Singles to leave it at 2-2 going into the final 3 Mixed Doubles matches.
When Templemore won the 1st Mixed Doubles, 2-1, it meant that if they won either of the last 2 Mixed Doubles matches, they would win the title.
With Templemore leading in both matches it looked good and when they won the 2nd Mixed Doubles match it was Templemore's Title.
Well done to the team on a great performance and to the great support they got on the night.
