The BLTA introduced a series of junior tournaments in these age divisions to provide for more match play for the junior players in a
competitive environment. This has aided in improved gameplay and confidence as players get more opportunities to implement all they have practised.
The BLTA congratulates all the participants and winners of the tournament. The tournament Director, Mr. Wesley Rolle is pictured
