Qualifying has started for the U14/U16/U18. Tom Hill, Jonathan Cornish, Clay Crawford, Brooks Allen, Jathan Malik and Joshua Ward-Hibbert have survived the opening rounds of the U14s.

U18
James Whike lost in final qualifying. Main draw not yet out (nor U16)
Tough for Alastair against last week's winner: If the British under 18 entry is thin the same cannot be said for the under 16s where we have 12 boys, just one fewer than the host nation.

Excellent results from the U16 guys. It would be nice to see Carpenter do well - I don't recall hearing of him much this year. Shame he has to meet Morgan so early on.
