Four young England players are set to get some essential experience on the international stage as the Europe Youth Series moves on to Serbia this week.
The quartet are Oliver Glowacki, Ronan Lamont Tierney (pictured above), Lev Sahmurov and Lusio Wen, who will compete in the Under-13 categories.
Glowacki, Sahmurov and Wen have some experience of international competition, having travelled to Hungary earlier this month for the WTT Youth Contender Szombathely, but it is a first international foray for Lamont Tierney – who beat Sahmurov in the Under-13 Boys’ Singles final at the Blackpool 4* at the weekend.
The competition starts with the team event and England have two line-ups. Sahmurov and Wen are England I and have been drawn in Group 1 alongside Spain, Ireland, Bosnia-Herzegovina, Serbia II, Greece II and a composite team from Moldova and Romania.
Glowacki and Lamont Tierney will represent England II and play in Group 2 against Montenegro, Serbia, Croatia, Greece, Spain II and Serbia III.
The team events are played on Wednesday and Thursday and the singles – in which all four boys will also play – gets under way on Friday. The competition finishes on Sunday.
ETTU launched the Europe Youth Series in 2023 to provide high-quality competition for Under-15 and Under-13 players. There are several events around the continent each year. The last time England were represented, in Bosnia-Herzegovina in April, a more experienced squad won four medals across the two age groups.
Results will be updated on this page.
