Was an extraordinary beginning to our 2 day U15 Nationals Championship 2021, with some spectacular matches being played.
Day 1 saw a blend of games from Boys Singles, Girls Singles, Boys Doubles, Girls Doubles and Mixed Doubles matches being played with finals to be played on day 2. There were additional consolation matches happening also. Highlight matches saw a more talented Boys Doubles team being taken out in an exhilarating match 22 – 20, 12 – 21, 21 – 15. Moreover Number 2 seeded U15 Boys Single Player just manage to secure him a spot in the finals 21 – 11, 18 – 21, 21 – 15.
Final day kicked off with Mixed Doubles elimination matches, another evening of exciting matches. Unfortunately nerves defeated the best of most of our athletes this evening, with some battling to capitalise. This years winners for Boys and Girls Singles, saw both them take out 1st placing in Mixed Doubles and Girls and Boys Doubles. What a great achievement. The night ended with a prize giving, with each winner receiving Vodafone topup vouchers, and some also receiving goodies
