Corby Tennis Centre was proud host to an 11U Grade 1 LTA event from 22nd -
27th October. This is the first time Corby has been asked to host such a
prestigious event, which attracts 64 players from all over Great Britain,
and features the very best players in the Country. 

The boys singles final was between Harry Swain and Frederick Fabricius.
Harry took a 4-1 lead in the first set, when Frederick had to have an injury
time out for a few minutes to sort out a wrist problem. After the break, it
was neck and neck until Harry took the first set 6-4. Spurred on by getting
back into the first set, Frederick took the second set 6-3 to draw the match
level. It was still all square at 3-3 in the third set, when he took command
of the match, and closed out the last set 6-4 to take the title.

The girls singles final was played between Milica Sakamoto-Milojevic
(Middlesex) and Tanisha Naveen (Warwickshire), and was won by Milica 7-5
6-0. She raced off to a good start and led 4-1 in the first set, but
Tanishka pulled back to get level at 5-5, but Malica then won the next 8
games in a row to seal a good win.

The next event at Corby Tennis Centre is an LTA Grade 2 16U & 18U, both
taking place from 28-30th October, and will again feature many of the best
juniors in Great Britain..
