u/13s
Jac Jenkins won all his group matches beating no3 seed James Corner. He had a bye in the round of 16 then beat George Coulson in the quarter finals. In the semi final he lost to Alex Gillen (the Irish no 1 under 13 and no.1 seed in the tournament) in a thrilling encounter.
U/15s
Jac played very well to get through his group undefeated and then beat Artur Caltabianoni in the last 16. In the quarters he lost to Ryan Williams, who has greatly improved, in a tight tussle. Soffi Jenkins meanwhile was runner up in consolation singles, an excellent result as this was a mixed event and she had to beat all boys on the way. She showed great character to come from 0-2 down in the semi final against Tahir Hussain who was very aggressive.
