(Hailong Shen in the previous tournament)

Are you ready?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GqP8kdqmES4

The deadline is tomorrow. If you still want to enter without paying the late fee, turn in your entries! Here is the entry form.
http://www.milpitas-tabletennis.com/ICC_Tournament/Dec2009/entryformv3.htm

The tournament will feature:
  • Free food for all players
  • Award banquet for top two finishers for all events
  • Live web streaming for selected matches (Open Singles final for sure)
  • Free two-night accommodation for out-of-town over 2450 players (limited number of rooms)

Four events have sold out. As of today, we've received 195 entries. Most likely will break 200 - a record setting in the ICC tournament history.

We manage to expand the capacity a little bit but still some of the entries won't get their spots. (First come first serve) We will send out a notice after Wednesday. You can either:
  • choose other events, or
  • get refund for the events you don't get, or
  • donate to ICC.:-)

Here is the entries received. Please verify if you get the right events. Let us know ASAP if there is an error.

Bookmark this page for the tournament result. We'll have a near live update throughout the tournament.

  • 123 players have entered as of 11/16/2009.
  • U1750 is full. The capacity is 32 and we have 39 entries so far. Only the first 32 entries will be guaranteed a spot. We are trying to find a solution to increase the capacity but there is no guarantee. If we haven't received your entries for the event, you definitely won't get a spot in this event.
  • U1950 is also full. (48) If you haven't turned in your entry, please do not enter the event.
  • U2100 is approaching the max cap (48), too. If you intend to play the U2100 event, do so now!

The U1950 event is limited to 32 entries since we will need to rearrange the court for the Open event. As of last night, there were 28 entries already. I'm sure it will be sold out by the deadline. If you want to play the event, turn in your entry early. First come first serve.

9/26/2009        Chile Junior & Cadet Open - ITTF Junior Circuit


Ariel Hsing (serving) and Lily Zhang showed a concentrated performance in the final from A to Z.  Photo By: Cristian Larrain


Lily Zhang and Ariel Hsing won the Girls’ Doubles in Chile. The young North Americans dominated a one-sided match from the beginning against the Brazilians Fukushima/Kumahara.

The Boys’ final also ended with a 3-0. Alvaro Robles and Marcelo Aguirre overcame the Eastern European pair Merzlikin/Novota.

Both, the Girls’ and the Boys’ winner had the most difficult moments in their respective semi-final.

Keeping the Focus
Thirteen year old Lily Zhang said after the one-sided final. “We had to work hard for the success and keep the focus because all the players here are strong.” Asked about their strengths, she did not hesitate. “We work well together and we communicate.”

The most difficult moment for Zhang/Hsing was in the semi-final when they were 1-2 down in games against the Argentineans Ana Codina/Augustina Iwasa.

The top seeded Americans also prevailed because their hardest opponents, the second seeded Asian pair Lam/Li, suffered an early exit in the quarter-finals against Low/Meneses of the Chile.

No Luck for Chile’s Boys
The Boys’ final ended with 3-0 in favour of the top seeded pair as well. Marcelo Aguirre of Paraguay won the title with his Spanish partner Alvaro Robles against the Slovak-Russian pair Samuel Novota/Taras Merzlikin.

In the semi-finals the winners-elect ousted the locals Felipe Olivares and Matias Contreras in four games. In the Team event, the same doubles match ended in favour of the Chileans, who however lost the whole Team match yesterday as well as the Doubles match today. In the end it was again Chilean sadness and Spanish-Paraguayan happiness.

They just won the Junior Girls' Doubles! It is not over yet. Both of them also advanced from their preliminary groups in the Junior Girls' Singles. So far, They've finished 2nd in the Junior Girls' team and 1st in the Junior Girls' Doubles. Not bad at all!

All US cadets/juniors have finished their competition but Ariel. Ariel will play the Junior Girls Singles final later today. She will play against the tournament top seed - the formidable Singaporean chopper Isabelle Li. Isabelle is not a stranger to the Bay Area. She won the Girls' Singles title in the 2008 International Children's Games in San Francisco.
http://blog.battf.com/2008/07/42nd-internationals-childrens-games.html



Lily was stopped by Isabelle in the semi-final in both the Cadet Girls Singles and Junior Girls Singles. Nevertheless, a great performance by Lily.

Apparently, lacking of choppers to practice with, both Lily and Ariel had troubles with choppers. However, the ITTF Media Coordinator Marius said it very well, "In the Team final, Hsing lost clearly, but skill comes with practice and the more Hsing can play against Li, the bigger her chances will be to beat her one day."

Let's root for Ariel!

Folks,

Please check out the result for the first week. 20 contests/100 matches were played!
http://blog.battf.com/

There will be 18 contests for the 2nd week. Please also check the above link for the schedule and location information.

Most teams have done a great job submitting the result and photo. We were able to update most of the result on Monday and everything on Wednesday. Espeically thanks to Dan Lin and Long Nguyen who took lots of great photos.

It will be a nice practice for home team to touch base with the visiting team before their contest.

Thanks.

/Bruce

I believe Kevin beat everyone in his group last friday. So the score with Joe should be 3:1 and Kevin won. I wonder if it is you that posted the results or if you can corrected it.
