The U17 players all played at Bronze level and the team was made up of Jack Quaye, Christopher Bulley, Christopher Moore, Baillie Watterson, Rebecca Hands, Louise Peat and Alex Bell.In the U15 events everyone played well. Kayleigh won all three games in her pool to progress to the semi-finals of the Bronze singles, where unfortunately she lost 21/16 to Marika Shand of Cumbria. Brian also managed to win his pool to progress to the quarter finals of the Silver singles, but unfortunately went out 12/15 15/9 15/7 to Robbie McDonald from Lancashire. Sean originally did not enter the mixed competition, but managed to find a partner on the day, Rae Larmour of Cumbria, and they both went through to the semi-finals where they were beaten by Lousie Breen and Robert John of Wales 15/16 15/12. The best result of the weekend came from Brian and Ben who managed to win all their games and progress to the final of the Silver Doubles, where they came up against top seeds Peter Athans (Lancashire) and Dominic Ashton (Cumbria). They went down 15/5 and 15/12 In the U17 competition Jack won all his pool games, reaching the quarter finals only to meet the eventual winner.
