East Gauteng finishes fourth in regional interprovincial tournament

The u-13, 15 and 19 Gauteng East Interprovincial Tennis teams participated in a regional interprovincial tournament over August 7 and 8.

Teams were originally selected to take part in the South African Primary and High Schools tournament in March.

Due to the pandemic, the tournament was postponed to August and the format changed to a regional tournament.
