Titles coming in for Jay and Maia and Ella yesterday- maybe others Ive missed. Jay did well in singles last week as well, decent month really and worth seeing if he can build next week.

Just A few days left now this month - with just 6 nominations , its one of the smallest fields in quite some time. If anyone catches your eye at the back end of this week, please feel free to nominate them - anyone can do it. But also cast your mind back over towards the start of the month and if anyone springs to mind that could have been included in the list, please add them also.

still a reasonable amount of action this week - but it does feel like February 2023 has been quieter than most months !
