British Schools

<div>Team Wales travelled to Lilleshall National Centre to play the British Schools Championships from Friday 24th-26th June.<br /><br />Wales won a number of medals, One of which was Gold won by the Welsh Young Talent of Charlotte Carey who held her nerves and fought back from 2-1 and 10-7 down to Yolanda King to take the 4th set 12-10 and pushed on to win a 5th set thriller to clinch the title for the second year in a row.<br /><br />In the senior Girls final another Welsh representative was Angharad Phillips coached by Aled Howell. Angharad met her twin sister Megan in the semis then Emily Bates of England in the Finals. On this occasion it was not Angharad walking away with the gold but it was a very good weekend for the twins from North Wales. Angharad walked away with a silver and her sister a bronze while they both received a silver in the team event. <img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5625504053481443490" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjYGECXWeJTEihHWgF_w6wGVSv8PrV_KIqfaMhvEeX6RWSzWWZohw9oI6n7QGA1r0UavVyO8_F0ZJemluDgwKD-3fS_UBLGllJTRqNZ1SRWan3hr1_eo8PsL1mz0FEkJ__ycKpLIMvRT1j2/s320/P1000348.JPG" style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; DISPLAY: block; HEIGHT: 240px; CURSOR: hand" /><br /><br />Picture of Angharad and Megan Philips with coach Aled Howell.<br />For the full report visit www.ttaw.co.uk </div>
