TEENAGER George Raiswell from Wistaston organised a fund-raising activity at Wistaston Jubilee Tennis Club on Saturday, March 19 to mark Sport Relief.

In previous years the Shavington Academy year 10 pupil has organised a tennis tournament and a 12 hour ‘Tennisathon', raising hundreds of pounds in the process.

On Saturday he organised a round-robin format doubles tennis event and a fund-raising raffle for the biennial charity event Sport Relief.

Each participant paid a donation to play against each other. Eight players played 58 games in total. The winning pair were Ben Reinhardt and Paul Sheeky, who won by a one game margin and received a shield donated by Concorde Trophies.

In total £131.25 was collected for Sport Relief, which raises money to help vulnerable people in both the UK and the world's poorest countries.

George also organised the raffle prizes which were a hamper donated by Wistaston Jubilee Tennis Club members, a £10 voucher donated by Cheerbrook Farm, £10 voucher from Minshull's, 3 family tickets from Cotebrook Shire Horse Centre, a one hour reiki session from Cheshire Reiki & Wellbeing Therapy, a round of golf for two people from Queens Park Golf Club, a meet the meerkats experience from Zoo2U, and a Reaseheath Family Festival ticket from Reaseheath College.

George said: "I would like to thank everyone who played in the tournament and those who supported it. I would also like to thank all the generous contributors to the raffle. It was all for a very worthy cause”.
