On 20th October 2019 Chandos Lawn Tennis Club hosted an invitational tennis competition in support of the sufferers of Motor Neuron Disease, including long time club member Simon Brennan.
The competition was run by head coach Javier Romero and thirty two eager teammates of Simon and other club members raised funds in support of this debilitating disease which has no known cure (yet).
