Welcome to the Junior Beach Pages!

Summer is on the way as the 2010 South West Junior Dates have all be announced and the tour starts in Bournemouth on the 5th June, stopping in Croyde, Weston, Exmouth (SW Junior Champs), Sandbanks (British Junior Champs), Weymouth and Wales (Welsh Junior Champs) finishing in the SWJBT Finals at the Animal Windfest on the 11/12 Sept. The age groups are U12, U14, U16 and U18. While the U12 and U14 are open to 3 a side teams, we are encouraging players in this age group to compete as a pair if they are up for the challenge. The U16 & U18 age groups can compete as pairs only.

The SWJBT is open to all regions (except the SW Champs and The SW Finals at the Windfest). We are spreading the word and providing more junior events out there to play in.

Last year we had ground breaking number of entries and we are hoping to surpass that in our second year. Page Nelmes and Annie Tinker who won the Girls U18 Tour last year were selected to represent GBR at the World U21 Championships in Blackpool. From small junior events who knows where things will take you?

Coaching camps during the Whitsun Half Term are scheduled in Bournemouth 1st June, Bath 2nd June and Croyde on the 3rd of June. They are open to all juniors who would like some coaching on the beach game.

If you haven't already don't forget to join our facebook page as we will be adding more albums, It looks like a promising summer ahead, all we need is the weather to go with it.

See you on the sand ...
