Dragon Grand Prix Round 5.

The last Dragon Tournament of the season had a total of 32 participants taking to the table.
Which saw 10 players from Whitchurch Academy and 6 player from Cathays Academy.

There was some good table tennis played by the youngsters who have only recently joined the sport.

In the Under 15's event Cathays Academy player Haneef Faithal had a great run and went onto win the tournament after beating Connor Priest of Ponypridd High Academy, with Lewis Steere of Whitchurch High Academy finishing in 3rd place.

The Under 11's was won by Camarthen primary player Niall Owen and runner up was Toby Johnson.
Anthony Cowling of St.Mellons Table Tennis Club gave a good account of himself in his first tournament by finishing in 4th place.

The under 13's event was a close call but eventually saw Whitchurch Star Alaisdair Weir run out as the Winner with Ponty Star Connor Priest taking another 2nd place. Munir Gailani of Cathays and Huw Howells of Whitchurch made up the top group.

All players gave a great account of themselves and grew in confidence as the day went on and got some valuable experience from the day.

Well done to everyone taking part in the last Dragon Grand Prix of the Season.
