Mixed results for TT at Commonwealth Youth Games

The boys beach soccer team won both of their matches, with a 4-3 result over St Lucia and a 2-0 triumph over the Bahamas II outfit.

But the TT girls, on the other hand, were whipped 5-2 by Jamaica and 2-0 by Australia.

In the girls rugby sevens, there were mixed results for the TT girls team, as they were blanked 31-0 by Canada, but followed up with a 20-0 licking on Bermuda.

The tennis pair of Aidan Carter and Emma-Rose Trestrail were eliminated in the respective boys and girls singles categories.

Carter fell to India’s Siddhant Banthia by two sets to love, while Trestrail was beaten by South Africa’s Minette Van Vreden by two sets to one.

And, in the quarter-final stage of the boys 75-kilogramme division, boxer Nickelle Joseph was defeated by Aaron Bowen of England by five points to none.
