Taking on the Best at the Gold Coast Challenge

1st June 2026

The Gold Coast Challenge proved to be another fantastic tournament, attracting strong competition from across Australia, particularly in the Open grades where players travelled from NSW to compete.

Our team, including many of our students and juniors, rose to the challenge and competed with determination throughout the weekend. There were plenty of tough matches, close contests, and valuable experiences gained against quality opposition. Regardless of the results, every player showed resilience, sportsmanship, and a willingness to fight for every point.

We are proud to celebrate the following achievements:

Congratulations to our players:

WD Runners Up – JY (with Asaka)
AMD Runners Up – Leo (with Shibo)
AXD Runners Up – Melissa (with Jonathan)
BWD Runners Up – Melissa (with Enya)
DWS Runner Up – Sarah
DMD Runners Up – Alvin (with Royce)
DWD Winners – Sarah (with Rebekah)

A special congratulations to our winners and finalists as well as every player who represented the club throughout the weekend. The results are a reflection of the hard work being put in both on and off the court, and we look forward to seeing that progress continue at future tournaments!
