The Neepawa tennis club is now ranked with the premier court circles in the province as a result of winning the western Manitoba ‘B’ division in Brandon on Wednesday, taking the honours from Boissevain to capture the Reesor cup. The cup is a large one, which will be retained by the club for a year, while a miniature of the trophy will be presented as the perpetual property of the club. By winning this event, Neepawa club now enters into the ‘A’ division, in which it will be able to compete next season. The matches were played at the Racquets Court Club. This is the third tennis trophy to come to Neepawa this season, putting the town definitely on the map as far as this sport is concerned.
