FastStep Badminton Academy enjoyed a successful day at the first round of the Surrey Plus Junior Badminton League.
The U14 team were undefeated on the day, dropping only 2 rubbers across their 4 matches against other clubs from Surrey and Middlesex and ending the day joint top of the table.
Later in the day the U18 team played brilliantly to win their first 4 matches before meeting tournament favourites Swifts A. Amy Radford clinched the girls singles in 3, then Will Pieckielon took the boys singles to 3 and despite having a match point was narrowly defeated. Casey Coats and Elliott Lucas got off to a strong start in the mixed, but lost out in the third game.
Our U18 boys couldn’t match the strong Swifts pair in the doubles, but our girls fought brilliantly to a nail biting finish and secured the game, leaving FastStep defeated 3-2, but with the contest still wide open for the next round in April.
