Hampshire & Isle of Wight's 10 & Under players will look to put in a strong team performance this weekend as they take part in the AEGON Junior County Cup. The event will see the boys battle it out in Sussex whilst the girls head to Surrey. Both teams will compete against Wilthsire, Surrey, Sussex, Berkshire and Kent. The winning teams will then go forward to the National Finals.
The boys team, being captained this year by Ollie Barnes, features Noah Bradwell (Lee-on-Solent), Jack Warren (Lee-on-Solent), Jake Bell (Portsmouth) and Alex Peermohamed (Bourne Club). All of the players have worked hard this year and will fancy their chances of making the finals.
Meanwhile the girls team will be led by Claire Overton. The team features Freya Davies (Winchester), Abigail Effeny (Totton & Eling), Samantha Kinsley (Portsmouth) and Georgia Moon (Andover). The girls will be playing on the clay courts at the Sutton High Performance Centre for the first time.
The competition will see the teams playing both singles and doubles over the action packed weekend, with only one team going forward to the finals.
