Sheffield played host to this years prestigious British Junior Championships, and a handful of our juniors made the trip to try their luck against the best juniors in Britain!
BU13
Huey Lamb was our sole participant in the boys u13 event, but after a promising start he had to withdraw due to injury. Wishing you a speedy recovery Huey!
GU13
It was a strong showing from Salma Barkouk. After losing her opening 2 rounds, Salma bounced back with 3 wins in a row to finish 25th. She also had the great experience of playing on the all-glass court at Abbeydale!

James Southern posted his best result to date at an U15 platinum event, placing 10th after 4 wins from 6 – including a narrow 3-2 loss to the 3/4 seed in the round of 16. William Brocklehurst finished a respectable 30th in the event after recently moving up to the U15 age group.

Emma Little was in the girls U15 event and won 2 of her 5 matches across the weekend to end in 23rd place overall.
BU17
Duncan Rutherford and Sam Tufton both had good events in the BU17, placing 15th and 21st respectively. Duncan won his opening 2 rounds before a string of tough matches, while Sam lost in round 2 but followed up with 3 wins from his final 4 matches.
