Congratulations to Imran Issa, Ali Issa, Sarene El Asmar, Joseph Vitagliano, Oliver Eparaima, Emnet Eid, Mohamed Khalil, Mohamed El Asmar, Sarah Coleman, Tarek Kanoun for getting Gold and Nathan Tartak & Mona Eid for getting Silver. An interesting day for those unused to the smaller ring size and the new rules brought in by the WTF, this made for a very long day with Sarah’s fight being at 7.30pm. All did very well and a big thanks to Marwan who stayed right to the end to make sure his players were well coached. Also a thank you to Jane who tirelessly judged all day on the courts, and the senior players for their assistance coaching. |
