A few more commitments for 2024/25

Hannah Rylatt has committed to Central Florida.
The St Helen's native marks the first British student-athlete to be recruited by Koniecko and only the second to play under him. She has excelled in doubles play, where she has won two juniors titles, the J200 Vigo on hard court and the J4 Casablanca on clay courts. Rylatt took part in The Junior Championships, Wimbledon doubles main draw in 2023 with partner Ruby Cooling. She also won the England Doubles National Championship.
"Hannah has so many tools that make her such a unique player and we are so excited to work with her," said Koniecko. "Not only is she a great tennis player, but she comes from a great and humble family. Hannah will thrive in a team environment, and I am so excited to try and bring the best out of her on the tennis court."

Alice Brook has committed to Louisiana Tech
Brook, a native of Ilkley, England, is a 5-foot-9 righty that will join LA Tech in the fall of 2024.
"The moment Alice and I started the recruiting process, I knew she would be the perfect fit for our program," said Sargeant. "She has an energy that is contagious, fun, and a breath of fresh air. I truly believe she is going to excel in the college environment and be a game changer not only on the court but also for this team."
She represented Yorkshire in Division I U12, U14, U18, and Women's County Club as well as playing U18 for Ilkley Tennis Club and the national premier league for Leeds Becket Uni. She was also runner-up at the J60 Loughborough ITF and made the semifinals of the ITF doubles at J60 Edinburgh.

Lance Nisbet has committed to Tennessee
Nisbet won the U18 Indoor Junior Scottish Championship singles title in 2022 at age 16 and is a two-time U18 Scottish Schools Cup champion. He was also a National Schools runner-up in the 13s, 15s and 18s age categories.
In doubles play, Nisbet secured an ITF Junior title in 2023 and won the crown at the U16 National Tour in 2022.
"I am thrilled Lance will be joining our team," Tennessee associate head coach James McKie said. "I have personally known the Nisbet family for a long time growing up in Scotland. I know he will improve tremendously in our program and value what we believe in. It's also great to have another player come to Tennessee from the Merchiston Tennis Academy in Edinburgh who do a fantastic job in the development of their students."

Natalie Crawford has committed to Gardner Webb
"Natalie likes to take control of the point with her forehand, but she also can come forward and attack the short ball.", said coach Mike Griffith. "She is very determined and focused to be the best. The number one thing I liked about Natalie was how competitive she is. The recruitment of Natalie was a complete team effort with coach Manon Delsol and the team."


And one non-British that may be of interest is Surrey's Nao Nishino has committed to Ohio State

 Sorry EP- if I knew of somewhere better to put voting stuff (and dont say in the bin!) I would! Happy to have suggestions or maybe we could somehow  get a new folder called Voting stuff?  Is that possible? That way only people interested need go there, it might be a good move?

 I thought that a new section was something only a moderator could do.

 Hi - i know how to start a topic, I do loads of them! Im not sure I have the ability to create a new folder , like General or Mens etc? Presumably if a moderator could do that, we could discuss other folders eg one for college etc?

 Ditto! But it would be great if we could separate them out, I think.

Jojo Bach will transfer to Montana State for the 24/25 season. She is currently at Portland but as a redshirt she hasn't played this year.

"We are thrilled that Jojo chose to be a Bobcat for her grad year," coach Woodburn said. "I coached against her when I was at Wisconsin, and she was at Maryland. I saw firsthand her fierceness on the court, the swag she brings in doubles, and the way she carries herself on the court.

"When the opportunity presented to make her a Bobcat, I knew we wanted her to elevate our program," Woodburn added. "Not only is she a talented and extremely hard-working individual, but she is also a natural leader and cares about her team and the team's success."
