The NSW Junior Closed was held at Sydney Olympic Park on 20 May 2012.
 
In the U18 events, Erny Tsao and Abraham Ng took out the gold and silver medals in the boys singles event, while Aubrey Young won the gold medal in the boys doubles. Abraham Ng and Sarah Tan won the mix doubles with Vanessa taking a silver medal also. In the girls doubles, Sarah & Vanessa took out the gold medal.
 
In the U15 events, once again Sarah and Venessa dominated, winning the gold and silver medals respectively in the singles, winning the gold medals in the doubles with Sarah taking out the gold medal also in the mix doubles. [It is good to have twins in the family!]
 
In the U13 events, due to the absence of Lenny Han (who returned to China for training untill the nationals in Septemeber), Jayden fought hard to take out the bronze medal in the singles.
 
Special mention to Roy Lin and Alex Yeung (aged 9 & 10) making their debuts in state open tournaments. They narrowly missed a gold medal in the U11 boys doubles by coming down to a much more experienced pair in a closely founght 5 sets.
 
The above 2 players, together with Natasha Fong (age 13) played creditably in their first open state tournaments. We wish them well in their future development.
