It was a gorgeous day of tennis, laughter, and costumes at this year’s September Slam.

Copper Valley Club was proud to host the Cheshire Junior Women’s Club event, which raises money to be used for scholarships and projects within our community.

Many CVC members, as well as many visitors, enjoyed the beautiful fall weather during the tournament.

And quite a few women did double takes to see identical twins of club pros Jim and Scott walking the grounds, as well as bumblebees, Batman capes, Team USA volleyball players, Irish tutus, tiaras, and Prince tributes.

Congratulations to the champions and finalists in the 2015 Filipek Tennis Tournament. Copper Valley Club was proud to host for the second year, and it was thrilling to see great matches and crowds of tennis fans from throughout the region cheering on the players.

Now in its 11th year, the Filipek has given over $100,000 in scholarships to Connecticut student athletes.

See below for a short video of what was perhaps the crowd’s favorite match, as well as results from throughout the tournament.

Champions and Finalists

Men C Singles Finalist

There were many fantastic matches throughout the tournament. The Men C Singles final, though, was perhaps the one that caused the most crowd reaction. It had started at 8 a.m., and by the time the players were nearing the end of a third set tiebreaker at 11 a.m., quite a crowd had gathered to cheer on the players.
