The victorious 17 and under squad consisted of Sophie Butland, Zander Tremaine, Alexa Tremaine, Lindsay Blatchford, Anna Howe, Johanna, Hotham, Melissa Bryant and Ellie Gardner.

Rhiannon Trower, Charlotte Smith, Amrita Patel, Georgina Rutty, Ben Chandler-Payne, Daniella Webb, Sam Sprauge, Zander Tremaine and Kasia Pitak played for the 12 and under team.

The 14 and under team (Holly Conquer, Amy Lock, Mark Saunders, Alec Blake and Russell Jennings) came third in their age group, while the eight and under team (Santi Fairfax, Reuben Davey, William Brown, Toby Lever and Alec Sprauge) and nine and under team (Matilda Fender, Willow Dyke, Nirva Patel, Eboney Perry, Sam Lever and George Bulley) came second. These two age groups play mini tennis.

The league offers mixed teams of boys and girls the chance to play both singles and doubles against other clubs. For some of them, it was the first time they had played a competitive match.
