Always a bit random with the youngsters as to whose individual player page will still be up in the mix in five years time, and whose will have sunk without trace, but... Mark Ceban is born 2009, tall and willowy, has just won the U14 Bolton event, and has come on leaps and bounds in the last 12 months, reall...
Apologies if there's already a thread for Oliver but I couldn't find one. Anyway I just thought he deserved a shout out for getting to the final of the M15 in San Diego. Good luck in the final Oliver. Hopefully he's going to be another Billy Harris and start moving through the ranks.

Edie is our youngest WTA ranked player and deserves her thread She is now WR 1111 (which is a cool number ) Born in March 2009, Edie comes from Upminster, I believe An attacking game, that has shown a lot of improvement in the last couple of years

Some top names from the Tennis Europe rankings are missing from the draw, including Liam Sharkey and Max Hodkinson, but Oskar Laskowski is here as top seed. The under 14 girls start on Monday, whilst other a...
Mimi Xu is (with Hep) the other extremely promising prospect we have amongst our young female players. She also is born 2007. Comes from Swansea. And has been a top LTA prospect for several years. I was very impressed when I saw her in the U18 nationals. The thing that stands out is her physique - she is...

Went to my mate's house tonight, and he had GB News on, as he usually does of an evening. Not really my thing, but there was quite an interesting interview with former GB player turned commentator Barry Cowan, voicing his opinions on the need to get more kids playing tennis and coaching in schools, and h...
Well, it's got to be done..... Sonay Kartal, age 19, has just won the ITF 15 title in Turkey, and deserves her own thread. A promising youngster, who played a lot against/with Emma Raducanu as a tiddler and young teenager, she's had a few injuries issues and, for whatever reason, didn't travel abroad...

As far as I can see, our men currently stack up: Main Draw Arthur (even a seeding may be possible but not entered anywhere currently) Cam (a seeding may be possible - entered into Los Cabos, Montreal) Jan (Ba...
