This is a big commitment again this year for the best of our age group players, both financially and in terms of being prepared to work hard in preparation both on and off the court. In order to help these talented young future leaders of our community reach their goals and develop the skills that come from this amazing opportunity we are very keen to hear from businesses who are preapared to help with sponsorship or groups with fundraising opportunities. Please contact Melissa Yeo, if anyone has good ideas or suggestions of who to contact.

We’re really excited to watch our most talented young players grow and step up to this 2026 challenge!
