In the Under 11 Girls Tin Tin Ho of Middlesex did not drop a set on her way to the Championship winning the final with a comfortable 3 set victory over Maria Tsaptsinos from Berkshire. Maria provided all the shocks in this event knocking out No 2 seed Emma Hoskin (Essex) in 5 sets in her group and then disposing of No 3 seed Jessica Brown in the Semi Final also in 5 sets.

In the Under 11 Boys Singles it was Sam Mabey from Northampton who dominated the Final against county colleague Miles Chan winning in three straight sets.

The match of this event however was the Semi Final between Sam Mabey and Roman Kelly (Derby). In a match of superb standard for players so young, Sam Mabey just outpointed a determined challenge from Roman Kelly coming back from 2 sets to 1 down to win 11-7 in the fifth set.
