The SYTC Annual Meeting took place Thursday August 21 at 4:00 PM on the SYTC patio. After attendees survived a minute of truly awful tennis humor from President Stan Werlin (“What comes before tennis? Nine-is”), Stan announced the election of Cindy Sia to the Board of Directors and continued on to praise the outstanding performance and dedication of Club Manager Steve Francis. Steve offered his thoughts on the club and the juniors program and recognized the invaluable commitment of Associate Manager Ken Huckins to SYTC. The Board of Directors reviewed the status of membership, finances, capital budgeting, special events, and the website/communications program. The meeting finished up with a discussion of the 2026-2029 dues schedule transition program, and then adjourned for all to enjoy refreshments and conversation in the positive spirit of the SYTC vibe. ​

​On a pleasant Monday morning in July, SYTC members and their invited guests participated in a highly competitive round robin. The top two scoring teams of Tina Mosca/Heather Nicol and Mary Butler/Carolyn Lee then played an entertaining five game final which ended in favor of Butler/Lee. Well-deserved prizes were awarded to all four finalists. This very enjoyable morning was capped off by a delicious luncheon prepared by our members, and all participants took home fun SYTC-themed favors. This event continues to be a perennial favorite!

Thanks to the many volunteers and donors who made yesterday's Summer Clambake & Tennis Exhibition "Funraiser" at the South Yarmouth Tennis Club such a GREAT success!

Spirited mixed doubles followed by a delicious British inspired brunch on the covered patio and large flatscreen viewing of the 2025 Wimbledon men's singles final.  BRILLIANT!

Back by popular demand, the “Color Wars” competition featured 6 teams of 4 players each – all dressed in their team colors -- in a multi-round format with prizes awarded to the highest scoring team. Afterwards, the players enjoyed a well-earned lunch buffet along with lots of laughs and camaraderie, as always.  Congratulations to Orange Team members Susan Campbell, Nancy Dexter, Catherine Diao and Diane Arena who took home this year’s prizes! ​

​All six courts were in full swing for the Season Opener Round Robin followed by a casual cocktail party on the club patio honoring our new members. Players heard welcome remarks from Club Vice President Konrad Schultz and enjoyed tasty appetizers, BYOB cocktails, and even a delicious signature mocktail -- the “SYTC Smash” -- created by Events Committee member Cindy Sia. A beautiful June afternoon to kick off the 2025 season!

​Sunday August 25th was a beautiful afternoon for a three-rotation Mixed Doubles round robin using all six SYTC courts. Tennis started at 3:30 pm, and by 5:30 players had worked up an appetite for dinner. We enjoyed pizza (including a gluten free option) as well as potluck salads and desserts.  Beer and wine (BYOB) and soft drinks rounded out the menu for a relaxing evening on the club patio for players and guests.  Attendees were enthusiastic in their support for repeating this event next season.  It was a winner!

​Hot and steamy weather did not deter 14 enthusiastic players from trying their luck at old fashioned wood racquet tennis on Saturday afternoon, August 3rd.  It was a blast from the past, when wood racquets with small sweet spots were the norm.  Before long, everyone adjusted to the vintage equipment and the result was an entertaining four-court round robin with lots of laughs.  After tennis, players were rewarded with an amazing cookout organized by Pam and “Grill Master” Al Hero including delicious potluck sides, salads and desserts.  Several partners and guests joined for dinner, completing another successful social gathering at SYTC.
