An Airdrie tennis club are out to emulate one of the best teams in their history this weekend when they compete in the Calcutta Cup final.

Springwells Tennis Club sprung a huge shock earlier this month when they defeated Queen's Park to reach the Calcutta Cup final for the first time since they last won the competition, way back in 1977.

That team-which comprised Tom Russell, Billy Gardiner, David Morton, Willie Scobbie, David Woodhouse and Stuart Ross - is considered one of, if not the, best teams the club has ever produced and this Sunday off ers Springwells' class of 2025 the chance to follow in their footsteps.

David Woodhouse's son Graeme is part of the current team going for glory.
