Junior Member Success at Bedfordshire Tennis County Closed

6 September 2024

In the last week of August fifty juniors competed at Riverside Tennis Club in the 2024 County Closed Championships. It was excellent to see several of our Club Towers juniors enter this event, spread over 5 days in multiple age categories from U8 to U18. This is the pinnacle event in the county calendar for juniors to enter, and well done to all for having a go and gaining some great experience of competing. Dreams start from small beginnings and all these children will have learned so much from the experience. They are paving the way for their future success and they will grow and improve by entering more tournaments in future. Chase your dreams and enjoy the journey!

There were many excellent performances by our young members and some great results as listed below:

Dillon       U8 Boys Singles– 3rd Place

Arka      U10 Boys Singles – Winner

U10 Boys Doubles – Winner

Ben         U10 Boys Singles – lost to Arka in the Semi-Final

Aaron      U12 Boys Singles – Winner *

Oliver      U12 Boys Singles – Runner Up

Riddha   U12 Boys Singles – 3rd Place

                  U14 Consolation – Winner

Jessica      U18 Girls Singles  – Winner

                 U18 Girls Doubles – Winner

*   Aaron also entered U14 and U16 Singles events, before losing to the strong 2nd seed in the U16 quarter final.

It is easy to search the LTA sanctioned events on-line at www.competitions.lta.org.uk/tournaments. It’s a little quirky but we recommend you type Bedfordshire into the search field and then narrow your search by using the filters on the screen.

We will also let you know of upcoming county tournaments in future too.

Our next Club tournament is the 2024 Junior Tennis Club Championships at Club Towers on Saturday 23rd November, for all age groups.
