HTC JUNIOR CLUB CHAMPIONSHIPS 2024 – Saturday 29th June

On a glorious sunny Saturday eighteen of our keen and enthusiastic mini and junior players all participated in the 2024 Junior Club Championships.

8U mixed:

A busy schedule of twenty-one short tie-break games on the mini-courts saw girls and boys playing each other and the two highest scorers playing a final. It was very pleasing to see some of our youngest players confidentally playing and enjoying the excitement of the competition. The final produced a close match with the opposite result from during the group stage. Reuben Brown is our 2024 Champion and Rory Hoy runner-up.

10U boys:

The boys all rose to the challenge of being the youngest age group to play on full-sized courts in a FAST4 format. The round robin resulted in all players level on points and it came down to ‘games against’ to find our finalists! It was a tense final. Mav Horton is our 2024 Champion and Sami Fordham runner-up.

12U boys:

It’s fantastic to see how this group of boys have improved their game over the years and are now confident young players as well as good friends.  After the round robin stages, Elliot and Orhan had the most points to then play a final with Orhan seeking revenge as Elliot had won in 2023. It came down to a tie-break decider.  Orhan Yesugey is our 2024 Champion and Elliot Philpott runner-up.

14U girls:

This season we have seen a noticeable increase in junior girl players but not quite in time to enter this year’s competition. The final was another repeat of last year’s with Bonnie and Bella once more locked in competition. Bonnie White is our 2024 Champion and Bella Lamborn runner-up.

16U boys:

The round robin stages played the previous day produced many close (tie-break deciding) matches plus some high quality tennis. The two top scorers of Tom and Harry met in the final for a one set decider. Tom Usher is our 2024 Champion and Harry Baldwin runner-up.

Thanks to Blaise and his Coaching Team for their encouraging support and smooth planning of all the matches and to Bev Wilson, HTC Chair, for presenting the trophies.
