2015 WA Be Active State championship

Dear readers

Yuli's students had a great day at the WA state championships.

Many of her young students did exceptionally well playing above their grades.

Bella won the women's open singles proving she is at 15 years of age, the number 1 female player in WA.

Ryan and Romy were 1st and 2nd in the C div singles beating the adults.

Daphne was C div singles winner again beating the adults. Jasmine Tan was 2nd and Alicia 3rd.

This was despite playing with bleeding and swollen foot. What a trooper.

Xiang and Tyzton were 3rd and 4th respectively in the Open singles.

Edward and Xiang were 2nd in th MD Open with Jasper and Kai Chen 3/4.

Angie playing with Eddie Hung was 1st in the XD Open with Bella and Kai Chen 3rd.

Milain and Jason were 3/4 in the A reserve MD.

Angie was 2nd in the A Reserve Singles.

Ryan Tan was 3/4 in B Grade. Not bad for a 13 year old playing in the adults league.

Alicia was 3rd in the B Grade singles. Also good for a young girl playing against adults.

Janice and Jasmine Tan were 2nd in the adults C grades doubles. Good work girls.

This has shown the dominance of Yuli's young players coming up in the ranks.

Many of these players will be fighting for a place in the WA State Under 15s this weekend. Good luck to them.

Yu li sleeping as a homeless coach to raise funds for the homeless


Dear readers


Yuli took a challenge from her lawyer friend to sleep as a homeless person to raise funds for the homeless.

Raymond Tan has been taking part in the CEO Sleepout for over 5 years.

The Sleepout takes place at the WACA grounds.

Yuli slept out on 18 June 2015.

However she managed to raise over $4000 from her friends and supporters.

The funds are used by Vinnies to provide accommodation and help to the over 100,000 homeless people in Australia. Yuli was ranked in the top 50s out of 106 CEOs who took part last night.

She hopes to take part again next year and raise even more funds.

Yuli's student Milain and Daphne Wan at Under 15 National Camp during the Australian Open

Dear readers

2 of Yuli's up and coming badminton stars were invited to take part at the Under 15s National Camp which was held at Sydney during the same time as the Australian Open.

The training camp was paid for by Badminton Australia with the top 2 male and female players from each state being invited to take part.

Daphne Wan and Milain Ranasinghe were picked to represent WA. They did well in the training camp and were both ranked quite highly. WA will expect them to do well in the Under 15s nationals which will commence in October.

Milain got to walk on court carrying the bag of the eventual Aus Open Winner Chen Long.

Daphne also walked on to the court with a Malaysian womens doubles finalist called Tan Chin Huat.




And also from BAWA's newsletter were the following info :




A group of WA young players have been selected to the National Junior Squads:
Kai Chen Teoh, Ryan Tan and Theodore Kang are now members of U17 Youth Development Squad, and Tyzton Tan is in the U19 Elite Development Squad. We are proud of your achievements - keep up the good work guys! 




Family Fun Tournament

The An Yu Academy, Tan and Tan Lawyers Family Fun Tournament held at Samson Recreation on Sat  2nd May was a great success with 50 pairs competing in three age groups: U11, U14 & Over 14.
Each junior player was partnered by a family member or friend and it was great to see the young players enjoying being on court with the parents. In the oldest Division there were some tight and competitive matches with some of the State Juniors playing with their fathers and although the standard of play was good there was also much laughter and the 'high fives' - especially when the Dads managed to hit a good shot!
The U11 Division had some very young players on court and they showed great promise for the future. The challenge will be to maintain their enormous enthusiasm as well as developing their skills.
Yuli Zheng, founder of the An Yu Academy is to be commended on planning and managing the event with the help of several parents. There was a very happy atmosphere and was a great bonding time for families. An excellent initiative!
