Harry Goldspink, 15, wins Peter Peukert Memorial Trophy at Wisbech Tennis Club for junior player who has shown most improvement and commitment over the season

Harry Goldspink, 15, is pictured receiving the Peter Peukert Memorial Trophy from Mrs Fay Peukert on Saturday, at a special presentation held at Wisbech Tennis Club.

This award, together with a memento trophy, is presented annually to the junior player who has shown the most improvement and commitment over the season.

Harry, who has been a member of Wisbech Tennis Club for five years, received the award because of his dedication, reliability, and commitment to the club, as he regularly volunteers with junior activities, helps at Tuesday coaching sessions, and has stepped up to play in adult tournaments.

Mr Peukert, who loved his tennis and played very much for the fun of it rather than competitively, died more than 32 years ago and this award is presented annually.

He was a member of the club for many years and served on the committee in a variety of roles.

He encouraged others to play and got his daughter, Sarah, involved in tennis, and the family have continued to support this award for which the club is very grateful.
