TENNIS – BAHRAIN Tennis Academy (BTA) held its 21st Annual Junior Awards Ceremony for 11-and-over players at the Dilmun Club in Saar.
The ceremony was held to honour the most outstanding players of the 2024-25 season.
Awards were presented in 14 categories, including Best Backhand, Best Serve, and Best Sportsmanship.
Academy coaches short-listed five players for each award and then selected a winner after taking into account each player’s skill level and experience in the game.
Winners of the prestigious Player of the Year awards were Dylan Barrie (12-and-under) and Cian Wagstaff (13-and-over). Other category winners were Andrew Carvelli, Angela Charbel, Emily Cole, Perla Baaklini, Thomas Cole and Wiam Almusawi.
Dylan Barrie and Cian Wagstaff shared top honours at the ceremony with the pair achieving eight and six nominations, respectively, and each player claiming four awards.
The awards were presented by BTA director Dan Barrie. “This season, our senior players have excelled, participating in more open tournaments than ever before,” he said. “Some have even been inspired to register at international academies over the summer to further their development.”
