“This will be the first National Junior Championships that we are hoping to fully complete since this event last year, and everyone is excited to be back together,” Tournament Director Francis Soyer said.
“Having the best players from each age group gather from around the country is integral to the development of young players, and it’s crucial for them to have the opportunity to benchmark their skills,” Soyer continued
Tennis ACT CEO Kim Kachel is excited to host the event in Canberra, “The 12/u & 14/u Australian Claycourt Championships is a fantastic event for the ACT and the whole region, not only for locals, but for everyone who travels to the event and can experience all that Canberra has to offer. The facilities at the Canberra Tennis Centre are world-class, highlighted by the 12 impressive European Claycourts which athletes will be competing on. We are looking forward to hosting players, coaches, families and supporters from across the country.”
“The ACT has a proud history hosting these types of tournaments, with the likes of local players including Nick Kyrgios, Annerly Poulos and Charlie Camus all winning national championships over recent years.”
“The Canberra tennis community will have the opportunity to support our best juniors, and we will be behind them all the way.”
