Team Dubai travelled to Hull, England, to compete in the Development bracket of the Europe Championships against Switzerland, Gibraltar and Malta.

Susan Skelding, who owns Top Sports Coaching where the girls train said: “It was truly inspiring. Watching the accumulation of months of hard work by all concerned being converted into a stunning display both on and off the court.

“These young athletes have not only made new friends and supporters by the way they’ve conducted themselves; but they represented thier country, Dubai, in a way that very few professionals get to.”

After the success the girls achieved at the Europe Championship, they are now setting their sights on both the Asian Games and the World Championships.
