An Yu Junior Tournament 2016

Dear readers,

It was another great tournament organised by Yuli with her sponsors including Tan and Tan Lawyers , STT Corporations and Impress Furniture. There were over 40 players taking part in different age groups in singles and doubles tournaments.

Many of the junior players have improved so much since the last time I visited the academy showing just how much work Yuli does for junior badminton in WA.

Many of her juniors regularly win all the state tournaments. Her students are usually present in state teams and many of her state team players have gone on to represent Australia including Xiang, Kai Chen and Tyzton.
