The Suffolk LTA National Fostering Agency Easter Junior Tournament was successfully concluded at the Ipswich Sports Club on Thursday, and was thoroughly enjoyed by the enthusiastic young players who supported. (writes Peter Mornard)
Saul Hindmarch had a particularly successful week, capturing both the 8U and 9U Singles titles. Both deciders were contested by Suffolk youngsters, Saul defeating Reuben Chinnery in the 8U and Henry Proctor in the 9U. Joshua Stokes took the 10U Mixed title with victory over Alexander Boyd-Bench from Cambridgeshire, with the highly-promising Harper Mills, from Kesgrave, defeat Norolk’s Regan Bessey to emerge as the 12U Champion.
In the older age-groups, Holbrook’s Ross Spinner found Harry Hylton of Essex too good in the 14Us, with Tom Belton beating Jonathan Simmonds in an all-Suffolk 16U decider. The Men’s title went to Adam Mumford, who proved too strong for Suffolk’s Michael Ling in the final. Full roll of honour as follows:-
