Sames as above, from Asia Oceania Regional qualifying for 14 & under team events in te city of Henry aka melbourne, Australia:

GIRLS:

Group 1: Chinese Taipei, New Zealand, Malaysia
Group 2: Thailand, Indonesia, India, Hong Kong
Group 3: Japan, Australia, Korea, Philippines

Thailand def. Indonesia 2-1

Varatchaya Wongteanchai d Lutifiana Aris Budhiarto 61 64
Mia Sacca Panji Rindang Kasih (what a name! ) d Ratchaya Chaichan 63 61
Wongteanchai/Uthumporn Pudtra d Rindang Kasih/Vivien Silfany 67(5) 63 63

Mia Sacca PRK/Vivien S d Leong/Chan 62 63

Lutfiana AB d Brittany Teei 46 76(4) 63
Ellen Barry d Mia Sacca PRK 64 62
Teei/Barry d Mia Sacca PRK/Vivien S 64 62

So, Indonesia would play Malaysia for 5-8 places! Based on my overall observation from several junior tournaments and national selection which I had the privilege to watch myself, all our players - both boys and girls are lacking of playing aboard. So, classic! For the girls, Lutfiana has many things to improve...She reminds me of Romana - small girl but she basically only returns the ball...Mia Sacca and Vivien Silfany are better but they need to play tougher matches...Mia is now being coached by Yayuk Basuki! She is very potential among these three girls...For the boys, they are all good players...Fendy & Chris are coming from well-to-do families while Bagus must have sponsor if he wants to progress further. Bagus is very talented but lack of financial support...another classic condition! Anyhow, good luck for the boys in world group!

Sorry, I forgot to type the score between NZL v INA, it was 2-1 obviously for NZL!

This time, junior boys are faring better than junior girls! Davis Cup Junior team advanced to Essen for world group and now this 14 & under team is also advanced to WG! Girls are not doing well! It is the fact that there is a wide gap after Angie's departure to senior level. We have only Sandy, Septi and Maya in 16 yo group and then 14 yo - there are Ayu FD, Denise Harijanto, Lavinia Tananta & Joana Febri...That's all, folks! Multi dimension crisis has generated crisis in every field including sport such tennis! Wake up, Indonesian tennis!!!

UR correct, they have such bad taste!

It's in stadium??

is it the same with Hemaviton's complex?

yeah I want to sit next to MW!

[Shine On Silver Moon]

Amri, yup it is in the same complex when we watched "Hemaviton Challenge" but those were outdoor courts, you know...Those were courts # 11, 12, 13 & 14! The stadium is outdoor indeed and its shape is like our National Monument's lower part with 5,000 seats I believe...Um sure, they are gonna charge us...Remember, when they had exhibition match between Angie v Wynne in Rasuna Sports Club? It was pack of people!!! So, this time, I believe it will be full of people again since local tennis fans have not seen their (Angie & Wynne) acts for a long time!

[köj-è]

okay! see you there!

Pangdam Siliwangi Cup ITF Junior Tournament (Grade 4) from June 15-22, 2003 in Bandung

Thamrin Cup ITF Junior Tournament (Grade 5) from June 23-29 in Jakarta

So, Nadia...you may be able to see the one in Jakarta...I think, I will go when I am not busy!

[Shine On Silver Moon]

Yup, new plexi pave court is under construction now at Gelora Bung Karno stadium...So, I guess when we watch Fed Cup match btw INA v GER, it will not be weird court as they have planned to change one of the courts...In fact, I heard that they eventually cover both clay courts and they replace them with just one plexi pave court...So, it will become a center court!!!
