Both events were won by 1993 borns - Toby Martin and Abbi Melrose. Toby had a fine start to his ITF junior career at the back end of 2009, and could be one to watch for 2010.

This weekend it is the turn of the under 16s and most attention will be on the return after injury of Eddie Herr finalist Katy Dunne, who has won her opening match, but should be tested by Pippa Horn in the quarters.

The boys draw is here (Jonathan Cornish being top seed):

Katy lost the battle of the top 1995 girls to Pippa, paving the way for Emma Devine to follow up her breakthrough ITF tournament in the Netherlands with the title here, not dropping a set. Jonathan Cornish edged an epic first set tiebreak (18-16!) in the final to take the boys title.
