Isabel defied her England ranking and played out of her skin at the National Championship at Sheffield 7th June. In the Under 11 events she defeated with ease the number 4 seed (U13 No 24 in England) Holly Smithson (DV) with 357 ranking points 11-2, 11-8 and 11-4. This was done with great attacking play forehand and backhand top spin rallies. This enabled her to top her group. It did not stop there in Round 1 she then defeated Aliza Khaliq (Y) 3-0 to move into the Quarter Finals where she eventually lost to Sophie Rinnhofer in 3 close games. In the Under 12 events she defeated Aliza Khaliq 3-1 and was narrowly lost against Gemma Kerr (DV) 3-1 (U13 No 23 in England). Great performance from Isabel from much higher ranked opponents.
Noah had his first outing at the championship and played very well in a tough group where he picked up a great win 3-1 against Luca Pontone (DU)
