United Cup Tennis

 No Brisbane International tennis this year instead it is the new United Cup. Six country teams are playing in Brisbane, another six in Sydney, our Australian team is there and a further six teams in Perth.

Seven days of tennis and then two days of finals in Sydney, very unlikely that Australia will qualify for the finals. Our two top ranked player had to pull out due to injury a couple of days before it started.

Warren volunteered again this year but changed for evenings to days. Getting home on the trains was an issue in previous years and even more so this year with some lines cancelled during the holidays to connect with the new tunnel.

As a volunteer, Warren could have twenty tickets and chose from what was available, before vollies were given two lots of two tickets up in the nosebleed seats.

I went to the games two days and had good seats, about in the middle with minimal stairs, the rest Warren gave away to friends.
