Orla with her Harrow Camo Racket
Last weekend saw the Scottish Junior tour get off to a flying start at the Central Junior Open and Harrow sponsored juniors Orla Young and Fraser McCann were there to pick up the top prizes in their divisions.
Orla won Division 4 and Fraser completed the Newlands double by winning Division 2.
Peter O’Hara, the delighted coach, reported that Fraser didn’t drop and game and Orla beat all the boys in their respective divisions. He was very impressed with their performances and so the training is obviously going well!
