Rosemary Allan – Essex Silver October 2018

Essex Silver October 2018 – Rosemary Allan On 20-21 I competed in the Essex Silver October 2018. I had the advantage of it being at my local home ground. I had a bye first round & then had Lauren New, which I won 21-13, 21-11. Next up in the quarters I had Abbie Smith. I had lost to her in 3 sets in nationals a few weeks before, so I knew it would be a tough game. Like nationals, I [...]

English Nationals August 2018 – Rosemary Allan I (Rosemary Allan) competed in the English senior nationals August 2018.  My first singles game was against Maya Kateli from Middlesex.

Abbie (I presume) received some good coaching and completely changed her game plan to come back [...]

Charlie Wakefield – Norfolk U18 Restricted 2018

Norfolk U18 Restricted 2018 – Charlie Wakefield On Saturday the 3rd of November, I played the Norfolk U18 Restricted, where I defended the 3 titles I won last year in the same tournament. I came out of my group fairly easily in single figures to progress to the semi where I played Aruneesh Lakshmanavelu, a friend and old rival. This was a tough match for me and the score-line of 21-10, 21-9 really did not reflect the intensity of the game. I [...]
