ROAD TOWN, Tortola, VI - Ten (10) teams will be competing in a lighthearted tournament for the Necker Cup Kids Day on November 16, 2013 at Tortola Sports Club to collectively raise funds on behalf of the BVI Lawn Tennis Association (BVILTA).

Ten (10) companies have now firmed up their teams with each sharing the common goal of helping boost the experience and exposure of young tennis players from throughout the territory.

“On behalf of the kids in the territory, we are truly grateful,” stated Dion Anselm, BVILTA President. “To Premier Tennis Travel and VP Bank and to all the participating firms...”

Anselm also ventured to add that “this would not have happened without their support, or the professional support from the Tortola Sports Club and their coaches who are accommodating everyone in one way or another.”

The teams will be organised into a round robin tournament, which according to the organizers, “enables each business to make it their business to win, or at least reach the final where they will be MC’d by one of the two ex tennis professionals who will be in attendance.

Teams include:

Team  VP Bank          Team NAGICO Insurance     Team Digcel & JML DeliverIT

Team MAPLES           Team Appleby                       Team PWC

Team KPMG               Team EY                                 Team Kobre & Kim (BVI) LB

Team VP Bank/Conyers

Also made possible by the Title sponsor VP Bank and Premier Tennis Travel; a fantastic Necker Cup Kids Day between the final and semi final will punctuate this Corporate Challenge.

All children are welcome and will be given some free and rare tennis guidance from 1:30 P.M. – 4:30 P.M. by the captivating personalities of Murphy Jensen and Wayne Bryan.
