The ECF offers its hearty congratulations to WCM Bodhana Sivanandan, the new World Cadets U8 Girls Champion for 2023. Bodhana is the first English player to win a World Cadets or Youth title for twenty-five years, since Nick Pert and Ruth Sheldon won the Under 18 and Under 18 Girls respectively. Well done Bodhana!
Congratulations Bodhana!
