Dear readers
The trials for the WA Under 17s team commenced today. There was a strong performance by all the boys. There are 10 boys pitting their skills to get into 5 spots.
The boys are (not in order of merit):
Kai Chen, Ee Kiat, Heer, Jasper, Xiang, Tyzton, Gavin, Je Ren, Matthew and Edward.
Kai Chen and Jasper were in the Under 15s team this year with Xiang. They won bronze and Xiang was ranked no. 1 while Kai Chen was ranked 6th with Jasper ranked 8th.
Xiang of course won the triple crown.
The girls to date are Olivia, Julia, Geri May and Sophie. Geri May was in the Under 15s that made bronze this year. She was ranked equal 10th in 2013. Julia was in last year's Under 17s team that was placed 4th.
Sophie was in the Silver winning Under 15s team in 2012 with Xiang, Olivia, Heer and Tyzton.
All the parents were supportive today watching their children compete.
Thanks to Trevor and Andrew Chai for being the selectors. Most of the parents helped with umpiring.
Badminton and junior players are only so good because of their supportive parents.
There will be a fashion show to fund raise next week.
Our current issue is uniforms as Li Ning may be pulling out. It is a shame as they have been a very supportive sponsor having sponsored WA state teams for over 3 years.Hopefully we will hear good news soon.
It is too early yet to forecast who will make the boys team. Good luck to all the players. Some of the players are still quite young and if they do not make it to the team, they can rest assured they will be in a good position to get to the team next year.
Good night.
