Japan Junior Open Squash Championship 2016 – Winner for Girls U11 Valerie Kaitlyn Huang

The Japan Junior Open Squash Championship was held at Yokohama of Japan on 17th-20th of August.  It attracted more than 150 players around the globe to compete in this championship event.  After 4 days of competitions, I was very excited that I had won the championship in the under age 11 girls category.  

I am studying in the Independent School Foundation Academy (“ISF”) in Hong Kong.  I have been actively participating in various junior squash competitions and squash leagues in Hong Kong, although it was my first time attending a squash open overseas.  This Japan Junior Squash Open was a memorable experience to me and I felt honoured to have a chance to meet up and play with top players from Japan, Hong Kong, China, Malaysia, USA and Australia.
