Kiama Tennis Club members welcome Mark Booth to the club.
Mark and family have recently moved from Wagga Wagga to take up a Veterenary position in Kiama. Mark was playing at Boulton Park in Wagga for the past 8 years and is looking forward to meeting up with the local tennis community.
Mark is originally from Sydney and commenced tennis lessons with coach Graham Pearson at Southend Tennis club in Enfield.( Pearson is now head coach at Illawarra Suburbs tennis centre at Rockdale.) As a junior Mark Booth played in a number of McDonald squads as well as representing Western Suburbs in the Sunday afternoon Inter-District competition.
Prior to Wagga Mark worked and played in the north -eastern Victorian tennis competitions based at Albury.
When not on the tennis court Mark and family enjoy surfing, swimming, hiking and mountain bike riding.
Mark has settled into Wednesday Night comp in Division 1 well and with a huge backhand return of serve and speed around the court will be a force to reckon with.
Welcome Mark
