As new members to NDTC, we only knew Karla very briefly - but for us, Karla was the face of NDTC and it was a radiant and welcoming one.

She made us feel incredibly welcome on new members night and I had an absolute ball partnering with Karla against Simon and Natasha, we were immediately at ease and had a great laugh for almost two hours of play. 

Karla then always said hello when she saw us at the club since that first game, and I vividly remember seeing Karla playing on Friday 18th September in a doubles game and thoroughly enjoying herself in a never-ending rally. A lovely memory.

Rest in peace, Karla. Ollie & Natasha xx
