The singles and doubles divisions have already been decided with the mixed doubles to round out three days of top-quality junior tennis that has showcased more than 100 of the most promising tennis players in the state.
Dubbo players have featured prominently in the first two days of competition and are again expected to perform well when competition starts today. Kendall has already enjoyed two successful days of tennis, defeating fellow Dubbo player Sarah Costello in the final of the under-16 girls singles and yesterday winning the under-18s girls doubles with Kristen Schneider.
Today she will combine with brother Jarryd Meredith in an attempt to take out the under-18 division of the mixed doubles.
Kendall and Jarryd will have some stiff competition from another local hope in Lyndal Dargan who has teamed up with Canberra's Chris Clowry.
Lyndal has also enjoyed a good tournament having defeated Dubbo's Rebecca Cook in the final of the under-18 girls singles event on Monday.
Dubbo boys have also been very competitive throughout the tournament and two will be favoured to fight it out in the under-12 mixed doubles.
Tim Armstrong will partner Abbie Stone from Canberra while Jacob Barnes has also linked with a Canberra girl, teaming up with Megan Clowry.
In other results from yesterday's doubles, Dubbo duo Clare Bernasconi and Ashleigh Wilson won the under-10 girls and Jack Wells and Tom Barnes took out the under-10 boys.
Dubbo's Kate Wells took out her division with Canberra's Abbie Stone and Alan Armstrong claiming the under-14 boys crown with Newcastle's Mitchell Stone.
