NAMUR INTERNATIONAL DES JEUNES DE LA VILLE DE NAMUR 2012
Check out the TTW Website for a full report but overall it was an excellent tournament for our players who played at least 7 matches throughout the 2 days. Tommy Heydon defeated Martin Pierrard from Luxembourg to gain an amazing 16th Position out of a possible 24 and Lydia John again defeated Anouk Beniers fro Belgium club VTTL to secure her 21st place. Lydia had a tough first day but had 2 excellent wins on the second day and she was delighted. The standard in these competitions is extremely high we must learn from these experiences and take on board how our European Competitors handle these competitions both mentally and physically. Wales finished 21 out of 24 teams with a very young squad! Well done to all who represented Wales Chris Griffiths Laura Edwards Charlotte Slye Tommy Heydon Joseph Roberts and Lydia John.
