Finals day

Dear readers

The mens singles was won by Agostino after Hong Yuan, Milain  and Julian all lost at the quarters. Matthew Chew won the plate after a walkover by Theodore.

Joanne made it to the quarters but could not progress further. Never mind, she still has the under 15s. The eventual winner was Angela Yu. Alicia was the eventual plate winner.

In the mens doubles Milain and Agostino made it to the semis but lost to the eventual winners K Goh and Jack Yu. Romy and Ryan also lost in the quarters in 3 sets to K Goh and Jack Yu.

Julian and Hong Yuan won the plate.

In the womens doubles, Joanne and Bernice lost in the semis to V He and J Li.

In the Mixed doubles Milain and V He managed a silver after losing to Jack Yu and Angela Yu.

WA did not do well in the individuals this year. Hopefully they will do better next year.

All the players must be so tired now after a week of tough badminton.

Their standards will have improved substantially. Good luck to all of them for their badminton journey.

2nd day of individual events

Dear readers


It has been a mixed day for WA. Some players are doing better that the others. This is despite injuries and tired bodies.

Mens singles:

Ryan lost to 1st seed R Agostino in 2 sets. Likewise Romy also lost to Agostino in 2 sets.

The next WA player to face Agostino will be Julian Lee. Good luck Julian who has improved so much in the last few years compared to his first Under 15s when he was the 3rd player.

Milain is also progressing well and meet Otto Zhao tomorrow.

Timothy beat N Powell easily before playing against WA's Hong Yuan. Hong Yuan was too strong for younger Timothy who plays in the Under 15s this year.

Jia Ding did well beating M Kha before losing to 2nd seed D Han in 2 sets.

Theodore is progressing well in the plate and meet A Wheeler tomorrow.

Matt Chew will meet W Johnson tomorrow while Darren Lim will meet I Wong in the plate too.



Womens Singles

Young Joanne is the best performer and she meets Amelia Lowe tomorrow in the QTRs.  Good luck Joanne who is going to be our star player in the Under 15s this year.

Unfortunately all the other girls singles are not progressing.

In the plate, Alicia will meet Radhika tomorrow.


Mens doubles


Darren and Justin go to the plate likewise Theodore and Dawson.

Same story for young Robin Fu and Jia Ding.

Sam Chew and Timothy did a bit better winning their first game but lost in 3 sets to Hoang and Jhade.

Matt and Aidan won their first set before losing to Milain and R Agustino.

Agustino and Milain will play Hoang and Jhade tomorrow.

Romy and Ryan are doing well and will meet K Goh and J Yu tomorrow.

Surprisingly Hong Yuan and Julian also go to the plate after losing to K Goh and J Yu.

Womens doubles

Bernice and Joanne are doing well and will meet R Swain and T Thiessen tomorrow in the QTRS.

Katrina and Alina won their first game but had to concede to A Mowe and E Viravong.

Esther and Natasha will play Angie Liu and A Yu tomorrow in the QTRS. That will be a tough game.



Mixed doubles


Theodore and Yasmin go to the plate.

Milain and V He will play in the QTRS against Bernice and Hong Yuan.

Wonder who Coach Yuli will coach?

Darren and Esther also go to the plate.

Romy and Katrina won their first match before losing to Otto Zhao and K Xu.

Julian and Joanne will meet Agostino and J Li tomorrow in the QTRS.

Dawson and Alina also go to the plate.

Aidan and Cindy did well winning their first match but lost to J Yu and A Yu next.


We wish the players well for their next match. Its good night from me.

The fight for the bronze medal between Coach Yuli and Coach Tyz

Dear readers

It was Tyz vs his coach and mentor Yuli. Of course the mentor was the winner.

The final score was 13/3 for the Wasps team. WA gets bronze yet again.

I am so proud of Tyz for getting the President team to the bronze fight.

The Scorpions team were unable to hold off Queensland losing 9/7. So close. They were thus ranked 6 out of 8 teams. Not bad for these young  players.

Lets see what happens to the individuals.
