Shomari won the first game 11 – 6, but Alex won the second game in identical fashion 11 – 6. Shomari then won a close third game 11 – 9 and closed out the match with an 11 – 7 win in the fourth game.

In category B Rebecca Low and Samuel Ince-Carvalhal had a ding dong tussle with Rebecca eventually winning the match by three games to one. Samuel won the first game 11 – 6 and at 10 – 8 game ball in the second it seemed as if a major upset was in the making. However, Rebecca won the next four points to take the second game 12 – 10 and then closed out the match with wins in both the third and fourth games 11 – 6. Makeda Harding outplayed Maya Collins winning in straight games 11 – 3, 11 – 6, 11 – 7.

In category D Madison Fernandes and Abosaide Cadogan went the full five games with Madison eventually prevailing in the fifth. Madison won the first game 11 – 9 and then won the second game 11 – 7. Abosaide then bounced back to win the third game 11 – 8 and then took the fourth 11 – 5. The fifth game went back and forth and at nine all it was anybody’s game to win but Madison won the next two points and the match by three games to two. In the other match in this category Kirsten Gomes easily outplayed her cousin Jason Gomes winning 11 – 5, 11 – 5, 11 – 5.
