Chloe Fras­er of Queen’s Park Crick­et Club was the lone play­er to top two dif­fer­ent age-groups when the T&T Ta­ble Ten­nis As­so­ci­a­tion held its first tri­als com­pe­ti­tion for se­lec­tion to the na­tion­al ju­nior and se­nior teams at the Na­tion­al Rack­et Cen­tre, Or­ange Grove Road, Tacarigua on the week­end.

Among the boys’ Un­der-13 com­peti­tors, Sachin Ram­sumair of Petrotrin emerged as the win­ner fol­lowed by Samuel Humphreys of Ari­ma Ta­ble Ten­nis Club, Mal­ick Gopaul of Petrotrin, and Blasters’ Gabriel John. ,

In the Un­der-18 Girls’, Shreya Ma­haraj of Care­nage Blasters, made up for her third-place fin­ish in the women’s event on Sat­ur­day when she de­feat­ed Bago Slam­mers’ Ack­y­la Lu­cas, and War­renville Unit­ed duo, Rayan­na Bood­han and De­r­ah Ra­moutar.
