Competing in the 12’s National Championships in Sydney, Jocelyn showcased her talent by winning 7 out of 8 singles matches, including a stunning victory against the tournament’s top seed.

His ability to compete with older, physically stronger opponents speaks volumes about his talent and growth as a player.

In addition to his recent successes, Gavy has been selected for the National 10’s camp held during the Australian Open, where he will have the opportunity to practice alongside elite players and witness the best in the world firsthand.
