AVTA 1525 and 1375 May 2023 in Review
Dear players,
It has been more than 1 month since the last AVTA Tournament which was held for the first time at the beautiful Burden Park Tennis Club. In case if you had left early that day:
"Kong Kourn and Thomas Le emerged victorious in the 1525 division (https://avtatour.com/competitions/avta-tour-1525-may-2023), showcasing their remarkable skill and tenacity. Their exceptional performance, coupled with the overwhelming support from the passionate Burden Park fan base, made it a truly memorable moment. The chants of "Burden Park, Burden Park, Burden Park" and the iconic King Kong noise reverberated through the venue, undoubtedly boosting the spirits of Kong and Thomas, who remarkably played their 11th set of the day 😳. Their triumph in the final was an absolute nail-biter, considered one of the closest and most dramatic in the history of the AVTA Tour. (You can watch the highlights here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cc3bYEmjrOs. Don't miss Tien's mind-blowing dive!)
In the 1375 division (https://avtatour.com/competitions/avta-tour-1375-may-2023), Sonny Valente and Loi Vo proved their mettle, securing the title for Burden Park Tennis. With the added advantage of living just five minutes away from the venue, their home-court advantage played a significant role in their success. They triumphed over the formidable duo of Luan Vuong and Jason Duong, who were previous Double Championship winners. It was a thrilling final that kept fans on the edge of their seats, and Sonny and Loi Vo emerged victorious, completing the "Take it all" for Burden Park Tennis."

All players, without you, there wouldn't be a competition
Sorry if we have missed anyone but it wouldn't be a great success without everyone contributions
As we look ahead, our next tournament is just around the corner, this time returning to Burwood East. The question on everyone's mind is whether the Burden Park teams can replicate the same remarkable feat. Let anticipation build as we await the answer.
